Hi,

You might had frozen shoulder for which you have taken steroid injection in shoulder. Physiotherapy and apply warm Phomantation over shoulder. Apply analgesic ointment externally. Take tab Combiflam twice daily for 7 days.

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