Hello,
I have studied your case and I think that it can be either any inflammation in the breast or chest which can cause such problems. I would recommend you to
get a ultrasound examination of the chest and also a chest x ray.
I would also suggest you to see a physcian. If there is any nodule in the breast then it can cause such inflammation and pain.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
