Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
The side of my left armpit hurts while doing pull-ups. This issue happened two months ago when I did a few pull-ups. I then rested for three weeks but still, it hurts while stretching.
Kindly help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
In your case, we need a proper assessment to rule out any internal soft tissue or muscle issues. Do you have any inflammation or redness where you are feeling pain? Apply an ice pack twice a day and rest for two days, after two days do stretching for the upper part of the body. If you feel the same pinching and pain, I suggest you to consult a nearby physiotherapist for a proper assessment to get proper treatment.
I hope this has helped you. Thank you.
