Reason For Severe Pain In The Shoulders And Neck?

I have shoulder and neck pain, sometimes its very painful, sometimes a dull ache. My left collarbone is swollen by my sternum, and I have pain behind my left ear. I can usually feel extremely sore "lines" if you will, down my left arm and up my neck to that pain behind my ear. That soreness is located at that bony knob of my skull behind my ear.

Hi,

I have gone through your query.

You have shoulder and neck pain which may be due to dpasm of muscles or disc prolapse compressing cervical nerves.

So you should get xray cervical spine done in AP and Lateral and xray shoulder done in AP view.

Discuss report with doctor. He may advice you aceclofenac + thiocochicoside combination and static cervical spine exercise.

Apply hot packs for 30 mins in morning and evening.

I hope you have get your answer.

Thanks.

Dr.Singh.
