To hazzard a guess here could be missleading and dangerous. The lump could be any number of problems from fatty deposits to impactions and tumors. Get the phone book out and find a vet. Ask questions about there knowledge of reptiles and call enough vets so you can find one that really knows what they are doing. Try calling the ASPCA in your area they can surely point you in the right direction.
Sorry I couldn't be more help I just feel it dangerous to diagnose without proper info and hands on look from qualified people.
