Need Medication For Pain Inside The Internal Area Above The Armpit
I have had an ache that seems like it s inside the internal area above my armpit. It feels like when you hit your elbow (what they call the crazy bone) but that feeling is in my whole shoulder area and goes down to my elbow and sometimes to my neck and chest. It seems worse when I just sit still or type on the computer like now. It feels better when I lift my arm above my head and tuck my hand behind my head. I m thinking rotator cuff. Had x-rays a few months ago when I fell off of a bike and they found no dislocations etc. This started before the bike accident and now continues after that has healed so it s not related....only mention it because they didn t see anything wrong with shoulder x-rays etc. What do you think? Thanks.
