Suggest Treatment For Shoulder Pain

I have upper arm and shoulder pain...especially in my muscle area and upper back ...like muscle cramps or spasms. I have seen a chiropractor and used ice and exercises...no relief...my medical Dr thinks it is because of a reaction to cholesterol medication I was on...but I have been off it for over two weeks and still having pain.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You might have frozen shoulder since you say your arm and shoulder pain along with back muscle spasm all this can be relieved by any muscle relaxants like Baclofen which can be taken with prescription from any practitioner nearby. If you have still more pain then steroid infiltration would be the best treatment along with range of motion correction can be done.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
