Itchy Left Shoulder/Boob

Hello,

For the past 8 days I have been feeling awful stabbing/shooting pains in my left boob which travels to my under arm pit as well.

It constantly feels it has been burnt and very sore all underneath the boob and in the middle of my chest plate too.

Another thing is my left back shoulder blade has been extremely itchy! It keeps me up most of the night and its so frustrating I cant lie still... nothing relieves it :(

Was in hospital on Friday an they ruled out a blood clot or heart problems but I feel like this isnt normal at all.

Help!

  • Welcome to the forum Olivia although I'm sorry for the reason you're joining us.

    I know this must be worrying but it's good to hear that the hospital were able to rule out any blood clots and heart problems.

    If your symptoms don't improve however, or continue to get worse, do make sure you see your GP so they can look in to this further.

    Hopefully some of our members will offer their thoughts and advice to you soon but in the meantime, we're thinking of you Olivia and will have our fingers crossed everything will be o.k.

    Kind regards,
