What Causes Pain And Itching Around The Breasts?
For past several days, I have had soreness and pain, requiring tylenol, at my bra line from left breast around left side to mid back. I thought it was a pulled muscle from putting up the Christmas tree. It has not gotten better. Today it was itchy as well. Could it be shingles?
