I am suffering extreme right arm muscle pain when I try to raise my arm over and above right shoulder.
Can hardly put any weight on it without suffering. tried different treatments with virtually no positive effect.
Tried steroid injections, advil, anti inflammation pills. Just wondering what this may be and what to do?
