Hello,
It's very common after surgery and especially breast surgery. you need to do regular exercises. you can get ultrasonic therapy from any nearby physiotherapist.
If no relief in that then you can get local infiltration in your shoulder. It's very simple and OPD procedure. It will alleviate your pain and will help you do exercises.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
