How can armpit and back pain causing loss of sleep be treated?
human
Hello, My father is having extreme pain just six inches under his armpit and sometimes the pain is spreading to his back between shoulder blades, this is on his let side and has been around for five or six days. He cannot sleep anymore because of it. His family doctor is a slow nincompoop. And I would not trust anything he says for myself. We are currently awaiting tests, but I am worried to the point of vomiting. He is 48yrs old and in relatively good health. What could this be? Thank you in advance

Hello,The mentioned symptoms could be related to stomach pathology. It can be gastritis like condition. I suggest you give him antacid like pantoprazole for week. Kindly revert back with reports once done. USG scan also advisable in your father case. Hope I have answered your question. Regards, Dr. Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
