What Causes Pain Behind The Left Arm Pit?
I ve been having this dull pain behind my left arm pit area. around my back rib cage. When I lay down to stretch it feels like a bulge on that side of my body. It feels worse when I breathe. I did not do strenuous lifting. This is constant off and on each day. It s been happening for over a month.

Hello,
I would like to know if you are a woman or men. You should do a physical examination to be checked for lymph nodes. There is a possibility that a tumour may have given lymph nodes they give the dull pain and discomfort.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
