What could cause sharp shooting chest pain on left side of chest (near armpit)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chest Pain: Several things. It could be a pulled muscle or pinched nerve, but any pain near the left side of the chest in a mail your age should be checked out. I would recommend going to an ER or Urgent Care, especially if are having an episode.
