What Causes Armpit Pain?

I m having armpit pain on the left side. It came on quick at first it hurt a little, but now its really hard to move my arm without being in pain. It feels like there is something inside, it feels full. I dont know what to do. I dont want to go see a doctor because I have no health insurance. What could be wrong?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,
i am thankful you shared your concern here, what you are talking of is not a simple thing, you feel something inside, there is difficulty in moving the arm, and pain, this is indicating towards any swelling may be tumor in the axilla, the armpit region, it could have been due to infection but you have no fever,
PLEASE do not delay, insurance is not above life, get investigated for this, probably a MRI will be needed, and then surgical treatment would be ideal.
I find this answer helpful
