10. When to See a Doctor

Many things cause armpit pain, some more serious than others. Anyone who experiences armpit pain accompanied by dizziness, shortness of breath, or pain in the chest, shoulder, or jaw should see a doctor immediately. Other causes of armpit pain, like a rash, pulled muscle, or swollen lymph node, indicate a possible need to check with a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
