Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The upper left shoulder pain and tingling that you have can be due to mild spondylottic changes in cervical spine or shoulder impingement.
X-ray of the cervical spine and MRI scan of the shoulder can help in proper diagnosis.
1) Provide complete rest and avoid overhead activities.
2) Apply cold compresses and take some anti inflammatory pain killer after consulting your doctor.
