General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to the injury. I suggest taking anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 400 mg to relieve the pain. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application and rest. If the symptoms continue, I suggest to do an X-ray of the shoulder.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
