Hello,
Pain due to spasm of muscle generally go away within 10-12 days. If after 2 weeks pain is still severe then with pain medicines you should also do rest and avoid straining your shoulders. At this time, taking a muscle relaxant will be more helpful. Doing warm fomentation with water bag give you better results.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
