My 3 1/2 year old son has a large lump on the left side of his chest under his nipple. It feels like it is where the rib is, but it definitely pokes out, whereas the right side does not. It is hard and doesn t move. He says it does not hurt. He is just getting over a cold, which may be unrelated. No fever or redness.
