Suggest Treatment For Severe Shoulder Pain

During recent carpentry project with arms extended upwards in front of me, noticed shoulder pain on right side. Pain has continued for a month in upper arm and shoulder. Often find it difficult to raise arm or lift a purse with arm at shoulder length. Today, pain worsened with problems with wearing bra strap around clavicle. I just noticed a large bump over the clavicle area and trying to figure out what it is.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Although it isn't possible to diagnose your condition without an examination and a few tests, your history is suggestive of Adhesive capsulitis(Frozen shoulder) or Calcifictendonitis.

These conditions are easily managed by regular physiotherapy ( Range of motion exercices,stretching and strengthening exercises). Over-the-counter pain relievers, such as aspirin and ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), can help reduce pain and inflammation associated with this condition.

I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
