Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
From the symptoms that you have described, it seems to be Rotator cuff tendonitis or shoulder impingement syndrome which causes irritation and inflammation of the rotator cuff and the bursa when doing overhead activity and hence pain. It is commonly seen in diabetics.
The MRI scan of the shoulder will help in detecting the extent of damage. The main treatment involves pain killers and muscle relaxants like thiocolchicoside in appropriate combination. You can get these prescribed from her orthopedician.
Physiotherapy is the mainstay of the treatment. She needs to continue with the exercises.
In case the symptoms are persistent then local steroid injections may be considered for relief.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
