Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Lump in this location can be caused by some infected cyst or hernia. You are unable to palpate anything from the chest or abdominal cavity. So acid reflux has nothing to do with the lump.
I suggest you to consult your doctor. Soft tissues ultrasound should be done. This should tell about the lump nature.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
