What Causes Pain Under The Armpit?

Hello, A few days ago I noticed pain under my right armpit. It has mostly gone away but i just noticed there is a wall pea sized painful lump that is still there. It is not red and it moves when I move the skin and increase in pain when i push on it. I only use deodorant and I waxed about 4 days ago. Thank you.

Cannot say without an examination. Th earmpit area has a strong tendancy to have infection and boils but also lymph nodes. these give small hard mobile areas. Sometimes these can irritate surrounding structures. Often, boils need treatmetn with drainage and antibiotics.
