What Causes Pain In The Upper Abdomen And Right Arm Having A Lump Under The Chest?

Hello. I strained my upper abdomen changing a tire 2 months ago. A day after, I could hardly lift my right arm or move my right side without pain. All down my right side was in moderate pain. I just noticed a small lump right under my chest cavity and it doesn t hurt unless I press it hard. It is like a sharp pain. I can now lay on my right side but I feel slight discomfort. What are the possibilities I am dealing with here?

Hi. Your history and findings are more suggestive of a cervical spine problem causing the right sided pain. The lump may not have a direct bearing on the condition you are going through.

Go for an MRI of the cervical spine
