To answer other's questions, it is not red when I look at it in the mirror it just looks like raised skin. I know it is not an ingrown hair because I've gotten those before and I normally just take care of those myself. I don't shave my armpits anymore..sounds weird but I pluck them lol because I don't have the $$ to get them waxed so I haven't had a problem w/ ingrown hairs for a while. The lumps I've had before were painless but this one only feels a slight pain when I push down hard on it, not to the point where I will squinch and say ow. The ones I had before also never turned a different color and they were much smaller than this one. My doctor is unfortunately not in today and she is closed on Wednesdays so I will have to wait till Thursday. Thanks for all your input and kind words.
