What Causes Shoulder Pain?

I am having pain in my left shoulder for 6 months. I had treatment from 2-3 specialists. But that didn t work. Now I am having physiotherapy from 20 days, but that is also not giving any relief. What can be the problem with my shoulder and what should I do?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi you have pain in the shoulder not relieved by physiotherapists and consulting 2-3 specialists did not help either. Let me tell you one thing very clearly - Painful shoulders are very difficult to treat and 20 days of physiotherapy will not be of much help. In my clinic , I start pain killers + Muscle relaxants + Physiotherapy and in no relief in 3 weeks then I will get an MRI to assess the exact cause.
