How To Cure Pain On Both Shoulders Due To An Bruise?

I have been having pain in both my shoulders for the past couple of weeks with a large bruise on my left shoulder about the size of a baseball or larger. My doctor says it's probably tendonitis but I don't think so. I have had problems in my spine with C4 thru C7 for a long time but never had pain this bad. Have been referred to rheumatology tor cortisone shots but feel I need further testing before I consent to these and perhaps need to see someone who specializes in spine disorders. What is your thought on my symptoms?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Any how the pain appears to be secondary to the cervical spine problem. The bruise may or may not have relation to the pain.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such pain,neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days,and then periodically,till the diagnosis is established.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
