What Causes A Lump Under My Breast On Gall Bladder Surgery Scars?

I have a lump below the left breast, under one of my scars from gallbladder surgery. Surgery was at least 8 years ago. When I do sit-ups, leg lifts it grows and gets very tender. When I stop, it shrinks back down, but is always there. Need I be concerned?
