Hi, From history it seems that you might be having peri-artheritis of shoulder joint giving rise this pressure nerve problem and pain while joint movement. Go for x-ray shoulder and cervical spine for having osteo-artheritis. After reports go for physiotherapy, short way diathermy as advised by orthopedic surgeon. Ok and take care.
