Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can.
In most cases such pain is not related to relaps of the disease. This sounds to me like neuromuscular pain and it should be treated with rest, painkillers, cold compresses. You should do ultrasound to check shoulder muscles.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
