Xray of shoulder , elbow and dorsal spine should be done in consultation of an orthopedician.
Take ibuprofen 400 mg thrice, and methacarbamol 750mg twice , both tabs after meals for 5 days.
Do hot fomentation and apply relaxyl cream to affected areas
Shoulder arthritis may be developing and screening with X ray is important
