Thanks for visiting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Unfortunately this lump looks like a mass and should be tested through your vet. Due to the fact that it has ulcerated, I would highly consider having it surgically removed entirely and then sent off for analysis so that we can determine what kind of mass it is, cancerous or non-cancerous. I hope that you get to the bottom of this mass soon with your vet. Best wishes and take care.
