Is A Hard Lump On The Arm A Cause For Concern?

I have a hard lump on my arm about four inches down from my shoulder. It is on the front of my arm. It is about one inch in diameter. It is hard and not easily movable. It does not hurt either to the touch or otherwise. I just noticed it by rubbing my arm while stretching. I am a 73 year old female and otherwise in good health. It is under the skin and not noticeable by looking at my arm.

Hi
Welcome.
I have gone through your query.
It is difficult to comment on it without examination, I would suggest either you upload the picture for assessment and provide you with specific advice. Or see local doctor for examination and further help.
Take care
