Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am experiencing severe pain in my right shoulder, if I reach wrong or move a certain way I get a sharp pain in my shoulder. It does not effect me when lifting weights or carrying something heavy. It just seems to bother if I reach a certain way. Most pain after showering trying to cross my chest or dry my back when I reach a certain way it is very painful. On a scale of 1-10 it is a 10!

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Such a pain at shoulder can be attributed to Peri arthritis of shoulder. Use hot pack twice a day and do active exercises of shoulder. Do not sleep on side lying position involving the shoulder bearing the whole weight of body. It will worsen the condition. If you are diabetic then keep it under check. For reducing pain visit physiotherapy clinic as in physiotherapy machines like (tens and ift) helps in pain reduction. And exercises along with mobilisation of shoulder joint will help in early and speedy recovery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Harsh Swarup
