Suggest Treatment For Shoulder Pain Relief
Hi, I have two operations on my right shoulder which involved decompression of the shoulder and removal of the a/c joint in 2010 and in 2012. I am still in a lot of pain and now after numerous amount of physio and steroid injections I am now still under the hospital for intensive physio where they are mainly working on the muscles around the scapular where most of the pain and discomfort is coming from. I am also still getting pain down my arm like as if there is a weight in my top of the arm by the bicep, how can I reduce the pain ..I am not on any medication at the moment, but cant take much more as im not sleeping because of this.

Hi
You may consult shoulder surgeon who may review your condition just in case a new pathology has developed.
Physiotherapy is mainstay of treatment and taking pain medication such as tramadol and or Ace proxyvon for acute pain for 5 days.
Use sling in daytime, apply voveran TPS gel locally.
Your surgeon may provide the prescription
Best wishes
