Hi,
I agree, it is not a sacr. This looks like a lipoma or a myoma. Lipoma is collection of fat ad myoma is a lunmp in the muscle tissue. Both these conditions are harmless. But rarely, they can be conveted to cancerous lesons. I would say, you need a second opinion and investigations like a CT scan to see the extension of the lesion.
