Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. The hard lump and pain in the armpit can be due to any infection in the axillary lymph nodes or breast abscess.
I would suggest you to consult a surgeon for proper examination and treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
