Hello,
In my opinion your symptoms are most probably due to abnormal positioning of your arm during sleep. If I were your treating doctor, I would advise you to stop using the ice, do elbow and shoulder exercise for the next 3 days. Use painkillers if necessary.
Hope I have answered all your queries. If you have any further questions I would be happy to help.
