Specializes in Diagnostic Radiology

Rotator cuff injury: This is difficult to give only one answer. Shoulder injury such a rotator cuff injury can give pain. That radiates. Chest wall muscles also can affect that area. A good examination by orthopedist abs MRI might give you the information you need.
