Pain In Arm And Shoulder, Cannot Write Or Type. MRI Shown Supraspinatus Peritendinitis. Tried Physiotherapy, Cortisone Injection Not Helped. Suggest

Hi,

I can't type so much as my arm is so much in pain. I am having sevre pain in my shoulder for last 10 months. The MRI has shown 'supraspinatus peritendinitis'. If I don't do any work with my arm the pain will go away after a few days . Writing with my hand and also typing are the most painful things. I have tried so many anti inflamatory medication, physiotherapy, cortisone injection, etc but nothing has helped. Even I have tried some Ayurvedic medicine and oils as well. I would appreciate if you could give me some advice. Thank you so much.

Your MRi report should be re-assessed to find out the nature of tendinitis, whether there is any rupture or tear at its insertion on bone, and status of surrounding soft tissues near shoulder joint.For all this an orthopedist can evaluate and if as told by you the treatment has already gone beyond 6 months, some surgical or arthroscopic repair may be indicated.
