What Causes A Small Pea Sized Lump In The Arm Pit?

I have a small very tiny bead like thing in my left armpit it kind of hard but I cannot see it from the surface of the skin I can just feel it. It hurts when I touch it. And keeps hurting if I have touched it a whole lot. Cannot tell whether it moves or not.
