Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Can Pain In The Right Shoulder And Arm Be Treated?
I ve had pain in my right shoulder for nearly three years. I got injured three years ago at work while using a meat slicer. I figured it was the repetitive motion that injured me. It hurts the most at night when I am laying on it. Though, it hurts when I extend or reach upwards too. Getting dressed is difficult since using my right arm is painful. The pain is dull and gets sharp when I move my shoulder the wrong way. Recently the pain has started to travel down my arm. I m hoping to find some answers.
As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopaedic and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
