What Does Pain Upon Moving The Arms Indicate?
Hello, It may frozen shoulder or supraspinatus tendinitis. He needs x-ray shoulders and clinical examination by an orthopedic surgeon to find the cause. He may need steroid shot besides physiotherapy. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Varinder Joshi
