Dear- thanks for using our service. It looks that you have a nerve trap at the level of cervical and thoracic area which is giving you the pain in the breast and armpit. You might need a MRI of cervical and thorax to see if you have spinal stenosis or bulging disc in that area. Other possibility is muscle spasm that can be trapping the nerve terminals and give you the symptoms.
