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.
Is Sharp Pain In The Left Armpit A Matter For Concern?
One morning when I woke up, I noticed that I had a sharp pain in my left armpit. It feels like I pulled or tore a muscle. But it feel like something is pinching or burning. And occasionally I loose feelin in my hand. Seeing as I don t have medical insurance. Is this something I should be concerned with or will it go away on its own?
Thanks for asking at Healthcare Magic. I read your question and I understand your concern. Sharp pain in arm pit just after you woke up means it simply a muscle or ligamental sprain due to abnormal posture during sleeping. I would like to advise you to take pain killer like advil with two glasses of water. Do chinup and pulls up excersize and swing. Do regular aerobic excersize thirty minute a day five times a week. If problem still persists for doing the above for more than fifteen days then contact Orthopedic surgeon. Hope it helps best.
