pain in shoulder

[pinktwink]

woke up two days ago with horrific pain along right shoulder, neck area. Have used deep heat , voltural, pain killersand heat pads with little relief. Seems to be getting worse and cant raise right arm without pain. Also difficulty moving.

Any ideas suggestions. thanks

Sounds like you have a frozen shoulder pink. Hubby has had before and doctor said to try heat as in hot water bottle, then cold, as in some ice. 20 minutes each. Did help with the pain but he still ended up needing a cortisone injection which did clear it up after a couple of days.

is your shoulder blade out of sync? Can you circle your shoulders? If painful, do it slowly.

Hope you soon feel better pink. If it doesn't go off, you'll probs need to call someone in if possible.

sounds like shoulder-blade out. Anyone there who can massage it back in place for now?

Get to the docs, if painkillers don`t work, could be nerve damage

If there was a dislocation, pink'd sure know about .

wear a scarf round neck - keep it warm.

Or A & E if it gets too bad, because you could've pulled a muscle or something - very painful.

Google these two common conditions and see if either apply to your symptoms:

Supraspinatus tendinitis

Rotator cuff tendinitis.

There could be a multitude of causes, but the above two are the commonest.
