Lump in underarm

A couple weeks ago I noticed that there was a tender lump under my arm, when I squeezed it a little pus came out but after that, nothing. It's no longer hurting unless I bother it and now it's just like a pea-sized lump there.  I have had boils before that have left a lump similar to this one.  Could this be a boil or what? I'm very concerned...
