What Causes Pain In Right Shoulder And Arm?

I'm a fit, healthy 50 year old competitive ice skater. Woke 3 days ago with unexplained pain in right shoulder and arm. Reduced movement. Has increased in severity. Feel unable to train today (very unusual for me!) No known trauma and actually less exercise this week (teacher busy with end of term).

hi,
welcome to healthcare magic.
This seems to be a clear cut case of Rotator cuff strain. U need not worry about it. Do take a muscle relaxant T.Myoril 8 mg bd for a period of 5 days with local application of analgesic gel and hot water fomentation.Pls avoid ice skating for a week or so. This should take care of things.
