please visit a good physical therapist, according to symtoms stated by you are more likely a postural issue and muscular imbalance. being in a sling for 4 weeks always weaken the affected side muscle and trigger points which develops due to immobilization. getting properly and throughly examined by physical therapist might give you a better result
