A lump doesn't point to one specific diagnosis. This description could be anything. It could be a muscle knot, it could be a growth of tissue, it could be something else. Get it looked at by a good doctor. Thomas A. Bea Try www.webmd.com and see if the symptom-tracker by body-area works from there... gyoderpa...

If the lump moves easily, it is most likely a benign fatty-tissue structure called a lipoma. These are common in the lumbar region myofascial tissues, and often are not treated.

If the lump is painful and/or does not move easily, I would get a medical evaluation to rule out other conditions. See link below for further information on lipomas.
