Suggest Treatment For Restricted Movement And Pain In The Shoulders And Hands

My mother 86 years old had a reclast infusion done 1 week ago. 4 days ago her hands and shoulders started to bother her. She can t lift her arms up very high because of the pain in her shoulder. She s having a hard time getting up as she uses her arms to help herself get up. I know this is a side effect from the reclast. How long does this usually last. YYYY@YYYY
