Hi,

You may have injured shoulder again with possible rotator cuff tear. Shoulder should be immobilized in arm pouch. Recent MRI of the involved shoulder needs to be done. Please get it done from radiology center nearby you.

Meanwhile start tablet Ultracet twice a day for pain relief. Visit to your operating surgeon with report is highly recommended.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
