What Does Pain From The Right Armpit To The Wrist Indicate?

My right arm from my arm pit to my wrist area aches, mostly feeling it on the underside of my arm. It s a dull ache that seems to radiate from the inside out. My veins are much more visible on this arm as well. This has been gradual, starting 2-3 months ago. When I stretch it out (because the feeling is that I need to stretch it) it radiates to the TOPside of my arm. I have not injured myself but have had a lower back fusion 18 years ago that causes issues now and again . I have not been out of the country in the last 9 months. I do computer work daily and would estimate that I type 3 hours a day.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The armpit lodges the brachial plexus and all nerves to hand pass through it and this sounds like a nerve irritation. I would advise you to consult a neurologist for the same.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
