Detailed Answer:
Dear sir,
Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX
Well looking into your problem there are some conditions in which back pain and shoulder pain are related like seronegative spondyloarthropathy but in your condition it doesnt seem the case .
As the treatment you have been taking it seems you had frozen shoulder for which you have been recommended injection also . I dont think you should be anyways afraid of taking the injection . It is a very simple procedure with predominantly no complications . It is done on day care basis and hardly tak e10 minutes for whole procedure. If the shoulder pain is bothering you go for the injection it will bring relief .
I will also recommend you to get your vitamin D , Calcium levels , RBS tested to rule out any coexisting metabolic condition.
Take care.

Thanks for the quick response, I am not scare of injection, my only worry is that the treatment and diagnostised is correct, It shouldn't not happen that I end up taking injection without reason and my shoulder is not fruzzen as I am getting pain only during doing push ups, other excercies and while playing batminton. I was recommend by doctor to aviod all the excerise till my shuolder is OK, it is almost 10 days I see no change even with no excercise, I am more worried about my shoulder muscle, it should go weak without excersie. Do you recommend me to take second opinion.
The think which more bothering me is, healing with medication without physiotherapy, is it possible to get heal with physiotherapy?
Regards,

Yes you can go for it.

Dear Sir,
Thanks for reverting back .
It can be exercise related injury . You will probabaly require a course of antiinflammatory drugs .
You can take a second opinion on this. Get a USG shoulder done for exact diagnosis as the treatment strategy depends upon diagnosis .
Regarding physiotherapy I would able to guide after the diagnosis is made.
