What Causes A Small Lump Under The Skin Of Quadracep Muscles?

I have a small lump under the skin perhaps on my quad muscle. It doesn t hurt and is small and I have only just noticed it accidentally too. It is round and quite hard and I feel that I should ask what it could be as it is a bit of a strange discovery considering its size and location. I sort of stumbled across it. Many thanks.
