One of the most important reasons not to ignore armpit pain is that sometimes the pain of a heart attack can be referred to the region. Most people are aware that a heart attack causes pain down the left arm, but for some people, a heart attack could present as pressure under the arm, especially the left.
Anonymous, is the pain dull or sharp and burning? I wonder if there might be compression of a nerve that is causing the pain and tingling sensation in your fingers.
Regardless, please contact your physician. Keep us updated.
