Armpit bone pressure pain

Pain when pressing the armpit bones is a symptom we often encounter in our lives, and many people don’t know what is going on. There are many reasons for this symptom. In this area, there are a large number of sweat glands, sebaceous glands, and lymph. The lymph has the function of sterilization and disinfection. When suffering from certain diseases, such as neuritis, breast hyperplasia, etc., the symptom of pain when pressing the armpit bones will appear. Let us take a closer look.

1.Neuritis

Neuritis usually causes pain under the armpits, which can feel like burning or pricking and is intermittent. The pain under the armpits will be more intense when you raise your hands or stretch your arms, and the pain will increase with age or worsening of neuritis. Pain under the armpit caused by neuritis usually occurs in young people.

2. Breast hyperplasia

The pain under the armpit caused by breast hyperplasia usually occurs in women. Its characteristics are generally bloating and pain, and in severe cases, tingling. In addition, lumps may appear on the breasts that cannot be touched. If touched, it will cause severe pain. Moreover, pain under the armpits often occurs in the few days before menstruation and during menstruation. The pain will become more obvious, and will gradually disappear as the menstruation is over.

3. Catch a cold

If the human body is in a state of cold for a long time, the body will also show many adverse symptoms, and pain under the armpit is one of them. When the body is exposed to cold, it will cause poor circulation of Qi and blood in the body, resulting in stagnation. The occurrence of this stagnation can easily cause discomfort in other parts of the body, and pain under the armpits is one of the manifestations.

4. Overwork

When the human body is overworked, its muscle functions will decline rapidly, causing various discomforts in the body, such as: dizziness, headache, weakness in the limbs, and body aches. Therefore, excessive fatigue may also cause pain under the armpits.

5. Mental stress

Pain under the armpits is related to a person's mental state. If a person is in a state of mental tension for a long time, it is easy for him to become nervous. This phenomenon will affect the coordination ability of various organs and tissues in the body, causing problems in some parts of the body, and may also cause pain under the armpits.

The above five reasons are the main causes of pain under the armpits. Pain does not only occur when there is trauma to the armpits. Some diseases, or catching a cold on a daily basis, or a recent poor mental state may all cause pain under the armpits.
