Is Sudden Excruciating Pain In Shoulder Due To Pulled Muscle?
My son had a shower & washed his hair in the shower. When he got out he said his left shoulder hurt. Before he wwnt to work the pain had got worse, so i gave him x2 dissolvable co-codamol. At work 2 hours later he took 2 ibuprofen. The pain has not eased and he has to sit lop-sided as the pain is so bad. Q;- Is this a trapped nerve or pulled muscle ? If it s no better by the morning should i take him to A & E ?
