What Do Lumps On The Upper Arm Indicate?

My son complains of several "lumps" on his bicep (upper arm). He wondered if they could be lymph nodes. It started this morning with one and now there are several. They are painful like a swollen lymph node but not under the arm. He has no history of injury or illness. No injuries on his arm. He is wondering if he should get this checked out right away or wait a while.
