What Causes Pain, Sensation And Hard Lump On Underside Of Forearm?

Hi, I have noticed a sudden burning sensation on the underside of my forearm that's come on quite suddenly today. It doesn't feel like muscle pain and the skin is warm to touch and it feels like there is a hard lump just under the skin. There is also some redness on the surface of the skin. The pain has steadily grown worse and the ache is really starting to hurt.
