What Does A Large Lump On The Shoulder Indicate?

hi, my mom has a large lump on the right side of her shoulder. It is very warm to the touch. She did a biopsy but it ruled out any cancer. It was determined to be inflammation. But since the biopsy it is now a blueish-black in color. could it be something else other than inflammation?
