Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a pinched nerve in the shoulder. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.
I also suggest to maintain the area immobilized to prevent further damage. If the symptoms continue, you should see a neurologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
