How To Treat Right-sided Shoulder And Upper Arm Pain Caused Due To Strain?
I have been doing a lot of knitting and counted cross stitch and have gotten pain in my right shoulder and upper arm. Wondering if this might be myofascia? I have pain but not all the time. Certain things I can do without any pain but have a hard time using the hair dryer for my hair.

Hello,
It may be due to simple musculoskeletal pain. As a first line of management you can take analgesics like acetaminophen or Tramadol for pain relief. Avoid strenuous exercises and take rest. If pain persist, better to consult an orthopaedician and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query.
