Thanks again. The pain is fading away again. I don't have much faith in my doctor, she is new and seems to be stumped with what I have.... she didn't share any idea in what it could be.
Hi
Thanks for the update!
Since the pain is at a level lower than the armpit, it could be shingles without a rash. Antiviral like acyclovir usually helps. The other possibility is a pinched intercostal nerve. Discuss these two possibilities with a doctor.
Hope this helps. Take care!
The pain is not directly in the armpit. It's under the armpit, and towards the right breast.
Thanks for your advice.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Pain in the armpit can be due to heat intolerance and due to sweat dermatitis. It is also possible due to peripheral artery disease. Peripheral neuropathies as in diabetes, chemical burns due to any deo or lotions you use, peripheral nerve compression are the other possibilities. Nerve conduction studies and color dopplar should be done. If all this is ruled out then it can be thoracic outlet syndrome. Take care!
Thanks for the suggestions.

Greg I too believe it is probably a lymph node or gland filling up. I agree a run of antibiotics will most likely take care of the problem. If you can have your doctor check it before it bursts again because you need to ensure it is just something minor.
hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
may be you have got some kind of infection and your lymph node of under arm are got swellon.you should try some antibiotics on advice of your doctor.
God bless you
