I would suggest you to get MRI scan of neck and shoulder to make sure there is nothing wrong with shoulder it self as some time problem with shoulder joint appears like cervical spondylitis. So MRI will give us proper diagnosis. After that you cant take treatment accordingly or you can post your MRI report to us.
