What Is The Cause Of Shoulder Pain?
I recently had an MRI done on my shoulder. They told me at the hospital where I had it done that I had an excessive amount of fluid on my shoulder and some torn muscles. What does it mean when a person has fluid on the shoulder? It is very painful. I can t sleep at night at all and can t lift my arm up. Torn rotator cuff possibly?

Hi
There may be torn rotator cuff, and periarthritis,arthritis of shoulder.repair may be needed along with aspiration of shoulder ,or infiltration with cortisone, apart from anti inflammatory pain meds.
Follow your shoulder surgeons advice.
Use broad arm sling, and take tramadol 100 mg tabs after meal at bedtime
