What To Do For The Pain In My Left Armpit?

I've got a scary knawing pain in my left armpit- the pain makes me cry. It started when my child projected vomit on a bus everywhere. Also I can't seem to digest food. And cannot sleep. I take citalopram and quetiapine for anxiety,but this pain is real. Parallel to a tooth abscess
