A member asked:
Pain in armpit both side &upper chest discomfort after sitting/laying back, when lifting things& just some movements cause it. i have gerd & i smoke?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is possible: that the upper chest discomfort could be caused by the GERD and the smoking does not help either. The pain in the armpit is harder to explain so, see your PCP who could run some tests and a chest X-ray to rule out other possible causes of your symptoms.
