What Causes Stabbing Pain In The Breast?

For the last week I have had a sharp stabbing like pain in the top of my left breast, touching the chest area it feels numb and the pain goes under the armpit and into the upper arm. At times if I take a deep breath the pain will begin as a sharp stabbing pain in the breast area first. It is not a constant pain, but doesn t feel right. What could be causing this?

Hi, thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

With your description of symptoms, it appears like muscle catch. Do self examination of breast for any lump or pain.
Muscle relaxant with pain killer helps to relieve pain.
