Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain and coldness in shoulder area . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query arthritis , bursitis , tendinitis , torn cartilage , torn rotator cuff , pinched nerves or spinal cord injury . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may order CT scan , X-ray , MRI or physical examination to check movement . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant , anti inflammatory along with vitamin supplement for quick recovery also recommend physical therapy or stretching exercises . For now give proper rest to shoulder , apply warm compresses and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
