I have unbearable pain in my left shoulder for five days what to do
hi the main shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint which allows a very wide range of movement the joint is surrounded by a tough fibrous sleeve called the capsule which helps to hold the joint together a group of four muscles and their tendons make up the rotator cuff which controls movement and also helps to hold the joint together theres another smaller joint where the top of the shoulder blade meets the collarbone the acromioclavicular joint you can take accelofrnac paracetamol tab for severe pain once a day for two days following exercise will help reduce pain and increase range of motion reducing the strain when raising your arm or lifting objects reduce the strain or pull on your shoulder by keeping your elbow bent and in front of your body keeping your palm facing the ceiling to lower your arm bend your elbow bringing your hand closer to your body your pain should ease within weeks you should carry on with exercise for 7 weeks to help prevent symptoms returning pendulum exercise let your other arm hang down and try to swing it gently backwards and forwards and in a circular motion repeat about times try this 23 times a day shoulder stretch stand and raise your shoulders hold for seconds squeeze your shoulder blades back and together and hold for seconds pull your shoulder blades downward and hold for seconds relax and repeat 10 times raising arm and bending towards shoulder wall walk all these exercise will not only help in reducing pain make shoulder to normal also you can apply diclofenac ointment and clean it with warm aftern10 15mins following hot water fermentation it will help you reducing pain fast follow up after days for further investigation and medicines and exercise thank you
