Experiencing Intermittent Itching And Burning Sensation In Scapula, Had Gallbladder Removed, Have Hypothyroidism. What Could It Be?

Hello,
Three to four weeks ago, I started experiencing intermittent ( extreme) itching/burning by my left scapula. It gradually turned into pain not long after. It continues to itch/burn/pain, then started to radiate under to my armpit area. Now, it is contestant in both areas, and wakes me numerous times during the night and feel it all day. I called my physician, who is away this week on vacation, and made an appointment with her partner. Just curious what this could be? Thank You.

Hi, it appears that you have contact dermatitis, probably due to some constant touch with some thing like a particular like specific garment, hook, ornaments etc.
I advise you to consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
