What Causes A Hard Lump Under The Forearm?

Hello, I just recently noticed a lump on my right under forearm, midway between the wrist and elbow. About Pea size, non tender, can't tell whether its mobile or not, not aggravated by flexion or extension of arm. Surrounding area is reddish with yellowish discolouration. No known trauma noted. What could be it? many thanks.
