What Treatment Is Suggested For Trisomy 21 Down Syndrome?

My 12 year old daughter has Trisomy 21 Down Syndrome. I just recently noticed that she has a hand sized hard mass to the right or her lower spine. It s not real noticeable and doesn t seem to hurt her, but I m curious as to whether or not is normal. The skin color hasn t changed in the area of the mass.
