Shoulder Pain, Chest And Arm Tingling. Painful To Stand. Done PT. Any Suggestions?

I have a terrible burning pain in my left shoulder blade area that turns into tingling into my chest and into my upper arm. It is painful to stand for very long. Sitting and lying down are much better. This all happened after putting a lightweight container into a closet 2 weeks ago. Have had PT and chiro with no relief as well as used a TENS unit,
Ice and Advil. Any suggestions on what to do next?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain that you are having is likely to be a nerve related pain. Using a cervical, avoiding using a pillow and taking methylcobalamin supplements are likely to help you. Do consult a neurologist for proper treatment.
