Possible shoulder bursitis.
Detailed Answer:
Hello ! Thank you for using HealthcareMagic .
I have gone through your question and I understand your concern.
As per the symptoms, it could be bursitis of the shoulder an inflammation of the bursa ( part of shoulder joint).
I would recommend that, before You start the therapy with the nurse, have a complete examination by your local doctor (physical examination of your shoulder and if it necessary an X-ray to rule out Osteoarthritis),to confirm the diagnosis and you will talk about the treatment and he/she will recommend a proper muscle training for You.
Meanwhile:
You need to rest your shoulder, try to avoid the movement that make the pain worse , keep using Ibuprofen (400 mg every 8hours for next 2-3 days), warm compresses, use topical painkillers (Diclofenac cream) also.
Hope i have answered your question.
Let me know if you have any further queries, i will be happy to help.
Take Care !
Dr Balliu.
