Most cancers are internal and cannot be felt. But, if you can move a tumor that is only a little ways under your skin, it is generally a lipoma or another type of benign tumor. This is a fat tumor and is almost never cancerous. I say almost, because in very rare cases a lipoma can become cancerous from growth. Touching it does not induce this.
