I have a tender lump deep under the skin of my left armpit, the lump occured the day after i had done strenuous excercise...

Furuncle / Abscess: You may have caused irritation and a resulting infection in one of the hair follicles in the armpit. This can progress to become an infected abscess or boil. If it does not get better after a couple days, i would recommend you see your pcp for help.
