Suggest Remedy For Pain In Shoulder Blade After Being Hit

I fell when a motor driven grocery cart turn and fell on me. I was driving. It spun out of control. I hurt my right knee which I was already getting hylagan injections. I hurt my left shoulder blade which has been in pain for almost 2 months now. I see a doctor almost every week due to various chronic conditions and I have been praying not to add another situation to my long list. I am a senior citizen. Ever Jackson YYYY@YYYY
