Hi,
The pain &warmth in shoulder,can be due to cervical/spondilosis.
you need xray cervical spine P/A & lateral views to see if it's so.you can visit orthopedist &ask about further manegment
Regular exercizes of shoulder&cervical spine would be helpful (Physiotherapist)
Supplimentation with-vit B12,Calcium,Vit. D, can be taken apart from pain killers (If needed)
Take care,
Thank you.
