How Can Shoulder Pain Be Treated?
I m 30 years old and I ve had this pain that started on the left of my shoulder, armpit , breast and down my arm. I went to the ER because laying down was more painful and I was told at the ER that it was musculoskeletal pain it already been a week and I m still having ache on my left arm. It feels kinda sore and tingly then the next I ll feel the pain in another spoilt but the one in my left arm never really goes away it isn t very painful it just bothers me what s going on? My EKG came out fine and also my X-rays

Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic
Your complaint of tingling points out at a neurological involvement as only myalgia cannot be a cause for it.
It is most probably a case of CERVICAL SPONDYLITIS with radiculopathy.
TREATMENT:
1) soft cervical collar
2) avoid using a big/multiple pillows
3) T.Neugaba-M 0-0-1 for 1 month
4) Dicloran gel application
5) hot water fomentation
6) neck muscle strengthening exercises
If u follow this strictly, u wil definitely feel better in about 3 weeks.
