I'm having a lot of pain under my left breast, and sometimes it spreads to my back, neck, and arm. I'm on tolperitas D and GR 8, but I'm not really feeling any better. Should I be worried, or is there something else I can try? What could this pain mean?

The severe pain below the left breast, radiating to the back, neck, and arm, may indicate a musculoskeletal issue, costochondritis, or even a cardiac-related condition; given the ineffectiveness of Tolperis-D and GR-8, consider consulting a specialist, such as a cardiologist, gastroenterologist, or pain management specialist, for a thorough evaluation, including diagnostic tests like ECG, ultrasound, or MRI, to determine the underlying cause and develop an effective treatment plan.
