Brief Answer:
Get xray done

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have read your query.

You haven't tell in which part of your shoulder has cyst.

Anyway, cracking sound in your neck means, muscles of neck are weak and degeneration of vertebrae has been started.

So I advise you to have xray of cervical spine done in AP and Lateral view and send me the report.

Also stop doing pushups, instead do cervical flexion and extension exercise.

Have tab aceclofenac100mg twice a day if there is pain otherwise no need (pres of doctor is required as this medicine is not over the counter, calcium supplement are needed.

Apply hot packs.

I hope it helps.

Thanks,

Dr.CHANDER XXXXXXX XXXXXXX
