Could be a whole bunch of things. At the base of tail is fatty tissue so it could just be a hemotoma- meaning she bumped it or a few pounds over weight and made a lump inflame.
Usually bumps in that area are harmless. If you are really worried, take her into your vet. It depends- at 7 years old could even be just a pimple that well if you put her under for like a teeth cleaning, you could take it off, but other than that, its no harm to her. Sorry but i cant see your baby so i am speaking as though what I would do not knowing...
