Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It might be some sprained ligament or contusion.
As of now continue analgesics prescribed by your doctor.
If pain persists, you have to consult an orthopaedic and get an MRI scan done to rule out conditions like rotator cuff injury.

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