Hello and welcome to HCM,
The physiotherapy has not been able to achieve complete resolution of pain and related disorders thus it is necessary to go for surgical intervention.
However, further course of action depends on the clinical status of the should joint.
I suggest you to consult an orthopedician with all your investigations and thus plan further management.
Thanks and take care
