What Causes Sharp Pain Above The Right Breast?

I had sharp pain, not severe, just a few seconds in duration, above my right breast and extending down and to the right to my waist line. Pain repeated every so often, maybe 4 or 5 times in 20 minute period and then slight minor pain, same place for another 15 - 20 minutes. And now my right shoulder feels like I over worked it or strained it. What do you think caused it.

Hi,

Your symptoms suggestive of musculoskeletal pain mostly. For that avoid strenuous activities and take rest.

You are advisable to avoid movement that causing pain.

The non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug can be prescribed for five days. You can Consult physician for examination.

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

Take care
