Brief Answer:
Neuropathy/radiculopathy....

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concern.

Let me recapitalize your case:
- male
- 66 years old
- severe pain underneath skin
- very sore left nipple

All your symptoms are suggestive of possible neuropathy/radiculopathy. If I was your caring doctor would advise you to consult further with neurologist. If vertebral spine problems are suspected, an MRI of entire spinal cord is required to determine the level of injury exactly.

An ultrasound of your left breast is suggested as next furthermore diagnostic step.

Take OTC painkillers like ibuprofen until you discuss this with your doctor.

All the best!
Dr.Albana
