Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you may be suffering from frozen shoulder. Treatment of it is mobilization exercises of shoulder and analgesics such as diclofenac. Sometimes local triamcilone is given in shoulder joint to recover it fast.However MRI of cervical spine and shoulder joint can be done to exclude other causes. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
