Parasites, bacterial infection or cancer, for example.

I've always wondered how these lumps always afflict garters.

Go to a vet or an experienced snakekeeper in your neighbourhood.

I've never seen anything like this
In the past we had some garters with little lumps. This was because the enclosure was too moist. Now we keep them very dry with a not very big waterbowl. We never had that problem since. But the lump on your ribbon is much bigger. So I'll advize you as well to go to a vet.

Yeah, the vet is the man to sort this one. Good luck.
