Brief Answer:
cyst

Detailed Answer:
Hello, It sounds like you had a cyst or abscess under your arm. Sometimes when these heal up they leave a little cyst like structure that is a hard lump. Have your doctor look at it the next time you see them. If is probably not a concern, but could be removed if it is bothering you.
