Detailed Answer:
Welcome at HCM
I am Dr Saad Sultan and will be answering your query. I have read and understood your health concerns...
As far as chronic back and shoulder pain is concerned , it needs to be assessed clinically before a reasoned conclusion can be drawn. If I am your attending physician I will get the x ray of the affected shoulder joint and of the spines which are painful. After then I will be able to proceed.
You can use acetaminophen and volitran gel to relieve pain. It would be better to seek orthopaedic surgeon advice for it.

Tinnitus and hyperacusis , on the other hand, doesn't seem to be related to back pain. There is need to perform a detailed ENT examination to rule out the probable cause. Sometimes, its just infection which is giving you these symptoms. Hearing impairment do gives you these symptoms
so we need to rule out meniere's disease. There is need to undergo various lifestyle modifications to cope with it.
Meet ENT surgeon for this.
Hope your query is adequately addressed. Feel free to ask any time..
Regards
Dr Saad Sultan
