I think before you try to get rid or remove it you need to know what the bump is and how it was caused.

Was he given an injection in that area in the last few months? Sometimes injections will leave a small, hard lump that stays around for several weeks.

Do a search for CL (google or on this forum) and look at pics of CL lumps.
If you think it looks like that, I wouldn't cut it open anywhere near any other goats, and you'll need to isolate that goat until it's healed. If it IS CL, you will have to keep isolating it every time it gets a lump or it will spread to the others.
