The lump is most probably and ulcer or cyst. This problem is common when the owner has not been looking after the fishes water conditions properly. A Bettas water needs to be changed daily or more often depending on how small the container is that the Betta is kept in. Although (through lack of correct information) many people keep Bettas in small containers (jars) they should really be kept in at least 2 gallons of water. Contrary to general belief their water should also be filtered, and heated to a minimum of 70F.

How does a Siamese Fighting Fish get a knot in its tail?
There is no fighting fish that comes from China. Someone told you a wrong name. The correctly named "Betta splendens" also commonly called the "Siamese fighting fish" comes from the jungles and rice paddies of tropical Asia and needs constantly warm water around 78F and could not survive without heaters in icy cold China. If by "lump" you mean something that looks like a thickening along one or more of the rays of its tail (caudal) fin. This is usually scar tissue caused by the fish having had its tail damaged/ripped at some stage in its life.
