Hi there. Emmy could have any number of things going on. This sound like a small tumor that your veterinarian can identify by drawing cells from the mass with a needle and looking at them under a microscope. This is called cytology from a fine needle aspirate. This is not an emergency, but at your convenience you should schedule an appointment with your vet.
