      Just curious if anyone else panics over odd unexplained pains. I have been having radiating pain under my arms

      for a couple weeks now. I first thought it was from working too hard in the yard but it hasnt gone away.

      somtimes its painful and runs down to my hands.

          More likely this is due to cervical disc irritation. I would not panic, but go to see the PCP and do PT. Hope it will improve soon!

                I would see him sooner for the piece of mind. Otherwise you would be worried and worried. He can do an axxilar ultrasound to check these bumps and lymphnodes.

                            Did you have surgery that might cause nerve pain or maybe even scar tissue that could cause unusual pains in your arms?

                            My surgeon/oncologist told me that both things are possible.  I have had a lot of unusual pains too but so far nothing has shown up on my CTs, which is very good, but they always tell me it's important to get it checked and they follow me pretty closely whenever I report any new or strange pain.
