It sounds like it could be a blister. You would need it drained by a vet.

This does sound like a blister, I checked Caudata Culture, and I found this picture, and the following:

Blister
Taricha granulosa with blister. When drained by a vet, no bacteria were found in the fluid. The newt recovered. See forum thread.

Hope this helps!
