Should I Be Worried Of The Red Colored, Swollen Nodules Under Armpit?

My husband has nodules (lumps) under his armpits. There is some redness associated with these nodule which are small but somewhat hard. Three under one armpit and one under another. Should we be concerned about this condition? This is the second day we notice them.
