Pain in armpit

Hi all, I have a stabbing pain under my right armpit! It started about 3 days ago. I cannot feel anything there, no swelling, no lumps. Pain killers don't seem to touch it. Any ideas guys?

Hope you are all taking care. X

Is it maybe nerve type pain.? Can you call your doctor. I haven't personally had this type of pain. If it is shoulder pain I get mine in my shoulder and collar bone , not underneath x feel for you x

Hi Carolsos. Just found this below for you on verywellhealth.com. Even so, make sure you run it past your GP or rheumy doctor just to be on the safe side.

I also have this pain , it is from your shoulder. Strange as it may seem lol.

I had X-ray guided cortisone shots. It has been five years and I am now considering a repeat.
