How Can severe Shoulder Pain Be Treated?
I am having pain in my left shoulder and it is significantly more pronounced when I try to take a deep breath. I am able to move it freely with little to no pain. I haven t done anything abnormal to cause this pain. It s been a few days since the onset of pain. Should I be worried enough to go to the ER or should I just wait to see my PCP?

You should check on ECG to ruleout heart problems. If heart problems ruledout then you have to take one x ray neck for spondylosis of cervical spine..... Before that take tablet diclofenac and ranitidine for pain relief
