You need to consult a spinal surgeon about the next step. Many times the lump itself may not be the source of the pain and it could be problems with your actual spine but you need to be examined by an experienced Dr.
See your family doctor or general surgeon. More than Likely it’s a cyst or lipoma. Usually nothing serious but get it ckd out.
It's hard to determine what it may be without a physical examination of the lump, bulge, or mass near your spine. Most synovial cyst develop in the lumbar spine (lower back). These cyst can sometimes cause nerve pain depending on the size and location.
If you are having pain or discomfort, or even need a peace of mind with a diagnosis, you should schedule an appointment with a spine specialist, like me.

I think you’d better follow your doctor's instructions.
You should see your primary care provider. This may be an infection.
In worst case scenarios, this is cancer, especially if it’s through the last 2 to 4 months and Hertz. Go see a surgeon for family practitioner.

Some herniations may cause a bulging appearance. An MRI or CT should be ordered by a physician in order to make a diagnosis. If there is any visible swelling, you should see a physician for treatment and diagnosis.
Hard to say. If it doesn't go away in a week or 2, see a doctor.
