What Causes Pain Near The Armpit During Cold Weather?
Hi doctor. I got pneumonia in 2011, which was treated with amoxicillin antibiotic 1000mg. In Jan 2012 the MRI revealed a 10mm hole in my right lung, but no medication or next visit was needed. In August 2013 I was diagnosed with TB and had the 6 months treatment. The reason why I m writing to you is because I have pain in my right back side on the same approx level as my armpit. This happens regularly when its cold and when I m studying for long hours(exams/tests/projects). I don t know if its relevant but I sleep a lot during the holidays or weekends when I don t have classes. The near death experience in 2011 had an impact on my self esteem as well as building relationships around me. I test myself regularly for HIV, which I m negative but dropped below a size 28 jean in 2011 when I had pneumonia. Its 2014 now and I vary from 32 - 34 jean size. Can you please help me, I really fear another relapse. Regards, Vincent
hi vincent It seems your past illness has weighed heavily on your mind and made you over introspective. Both diseases have cured in modern day treatment and have no lasting effects, be sure.Eat healthy diet and enjoy some sports and outdoor activities, enjoy sunshine, candy and laughter to rejuvenate...minor aches and pains happen in normal individuals also.If have any doubts, go for repeat x ray of chest and consult your doctor.if x ray is clear then nothing wrong with lungs. Your side pain is due to muscular reasons for which mild pain medicines may be taken best wishes
