A member asked:

Sharp pain in left breast that shoots to my shoulder blade?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Go to the doctor: Pain in the left chest that radiates to the arm or shoulder may be a sign of a heart problem. I can't make a diagnosis on the internet, but that is not a description i would mess around with. Even if this isn't an acute symptom, you need to discuss this with your primary care physician.
