Sore, redness, itching lump under arm and spreading.

Have a red lump roughly the size of a quarter in an oval shape. Its painful and itches. The redness and soreness seem to be traveling. It is located between my elbow and armpit on inner arm. Any suggestions as to what this could be?

Since the lump is painful, itchy, and changing- those are all signs that something is going on you should have looked at.  I'd make an appointment with a doctor so they can get a bit more of your medical history and help you identify what the cause of this is/how to treat it.
