Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain in shoulders and joints . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like acute back injury , whiplash , sciatica , osteoarthritis and endometriosis , but in your case the symptoms are probably due to acute back injury , which occur due to compressed fracture or nerve injury . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon without any delay . Doctor may order CT scan , MRI or physical examination . Doctor may prescribe antiemetic drug , analgesic along with anti inflammatory . Doctor may ask you to go for complete bed resr , recommend surgery or refer you to spin specialist in case of severe injury .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwar
