What Causes Pain Under Armpit Radiating To Back And Arm?
Hello, I have had pain in the left side of my body for close to two weeks. It begins under my armpit and can go to underneath my left breast. It also goes down the left side of my back and my upper left arm, along with my right shoulder. Doctors said my heart is fine and to take ibuprofen. However, it has not helped. Should I be worried? What should I do?
hello, I have studied your case and I think that you are having muscle sprain . most probably Trepezius and pectoralis muscle are involved. This causes pain on movements. I would recommend you to follow these steps. 1.Hot water fomentation 2. Muscle strengthening exercises 3. Hot water fomentation 4. Tablet Myospaz twice BD I hope these steps will be helpful for you. Let me know if there is any other follow up questions. Thanks.
