Welcome to health care magic.

1.The features and history suggest possibility of lipomatous - fat content lump.
2.Next possible cause could be lymph nodal enlargement.
3.In this case i would have request for a ultrasound lump - which will help to detect the nature of the lump, its source and extensions.
4.Since its soft in nature the bony source is excluded - how ever chest x-ray will help to see any bony involvement.
5.In case of lipoma - no active treatment needed, lymph nodal enlargement will be seen in case of any infection / inflammation - it will ease off once the infection treated.

Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
any thing to ask ? do not hesitate to ask.
