Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Pain And Tenderness In The Left Breast And Swollen Armpit?
I have a strange, painful tenderness in the area above my left breast and underneath my collarbone, close to my armpit area. I think my armpit area may be slightly swollen. I m not too good with guessing that. I do have a mass in that breast that doesn t seem to move. The area where the mass is, does tend to ache every so often. I also have the BRCA2 gene. Should I be worried? I m 26

Hi,
I can think of increased acidity and gastritis (inflammation of inner layer of stomach causing you the symptoms. You should try having sips of cold milk as you can start digesting increase the amount of milk. Take Pantoprazole pill with milk. Then you can gradually start taking bland meals. Have at least ice cream while on duty. If no result, need to consult. gastroenterologist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
