What Causes Soreness In Shoulders?

It started out as a sore shoulder. He thought from doing some work he wasn t used to. But over a couple of weeks. It has gone to both shoulders. He can t reach out for anything. He is unable to pick things up with his hands. He also has a discomfort in his hips. We ha e not noticed any ticks. He has bug bites on his lower back. He has not been working since the day he noticed the soreness.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have soreness in shoulders. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like arthritis , rheumatoid arthritis , bursitis , tendinitis , torn cartilage , pinched nerves or injury. I would suggest you to give proper rest to your shoulder , do not sit in one posture for long time , apply warm compresses on shoulder and shoulder blade and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain . The probably cause in your case is muscle spasm and also take benadryl twice a day for bug bite and clean the site with betadine . If condition doesn't get better then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor will examine physically and check movements of shoulders . Doctor may prescribe steroid injection , muscle relaxant or physical therapy .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
