What Medication Is Suggested For Shoulder And Neck Pain?

I am having a lot of shoulder and neck pain. I tried rubbing the sore areas and I found some thick lumps under the skin on my shoulders and about an inch up my neck. When I try to rub them, I have been under the assumption they are knots they kinda move a bit. They are not firmly in that place. They are causing me severe pain. I have tried heat, cold, rubbing them, and having someone else rub them. I have had to taken night time tylenol and that barely touches the pain. So all in all, are these just bad muscle knots and should I get a massage? I dont know if this is relevant, but I was just recently in the ER because I had auditory and visual hallucinations and severe vomiting. The doctor could not figure out what was wrong after running a full tox screen

Hello,

The thick lumps under the skin that you detected are worrisome. This can be due to swollen lymph nodes. You need to get an FNAC done to find out the exact cause.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
