Could it be a swollen lymph node? They are located under the arm as well as 
other places. When my husband had lymphoma he has swollen glands in his neck. 
Probably something you should have checked by a doctor.

  Hi, re symptoms.....Is sore when you press around the top part. Is not tight 
but doesn't move around. Is not discolored; regular flesh color. No grains. 
Nothing inside. Been there a long time; more than a year. Hasn't bothered me 
but now since I was rubbing it (away I thought) it is bigger. Almost like fatty 
deposit. 

  Thanks,
  Leslie

    Respected readers of the Knot string.
     
    From what I know, you can distinguish a few things:
     
    Is it painful?
    Does it grow? 
    Is it loose, or is it tight, like bound to the bone or to the (muscle) 
tissue?
    Distinguish the color.
    Distinguish the hardness -- is it hard, soft, does it have grains in?
    Is there anything inside? (a single hair may cause a growth).
    How long has it been there?
     
    As a rule: Pain and immobility are warning signs.
    With these boles always be careful, and have them chequed.
    They may range from a simple talcum pimple to a dangerous growth of any 
kind.
