Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I have a cyst in my left pectoral muscle behind my nipple. I have also recently developed a weird pain in my shoulder and arm pit on the same side that feels like it radiates from the cyst. There is also a discoloration/bruise looking mark that has appeared in my arm pit. Would all of this be concern enough to get checked? Thank you in advance
If there is a cyst and who knows it had burst and the infection has spread to your shoulders. So if I were the treating physician I would have examined you for any tenderness in the areas and if so I would have taken a biopsy and sent to pathology and depending on the reports. I would have put you on antibiotics to control the infection. kindly get it examined.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. ARCHANA
