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 Do Swelling And Pain In The Armpits Indicate?
Ive got swelling and pain in my arm pits and numbing my right arm and small and ring finger. Its been going on for over a month now. I have some pain just below my rib cage on the right side. I have a nerve conduction test coming this week as well as an ultra sound of my stomach. Had some orange specs in my urine a mont or more ago ,but no longer. Doctors don’t feel any concern of swollen glands in my armpits , but my arm its have been swollen and aching for over a month. Could a problem with my Gall Bladder cause swelling of the lymph glands and therefore numbness and tingling in my arms and hand. Last my wrists seem sore or aching most of the time.
It may be due to swollen lymph nodes under the armpit. However, we have to rule out certain other conditions which can also present like this.
As of now start a short course of antibiotics and generally, it will settle by antibiotics and in case of persistent symptoms, better to consult a physician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
