What Causes Discomfort Above The Right Breast?

I have had this electrical current feeling above my right brest for a few years. At first it did not bother me much but over the years it has increased in not only discomfort but also the intensity of what feels like a shock. Now I m having a dulling discomfort in the exact same spot. I m just wondering if it sounds like something I should worry about.

Hello,

You may be suffering from acute neuropathy due to nerve compression, due to peripheral neuropathy, infection or spondylosis etc. Until examination is done, it is difficult to say what it is.

Need local examination and X-ray lumbar of the spine AP and lateral view. Use tablet Pregabalin once daily for five days. If symptoms have not improved, please consult your doctor, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
