Hello,

As this appears to be periarthritis of the shoulder. Due to which internal rotation of the shoulder is blocked due to pain and also there will he pain in the arm muscles like the deltoid and biceps.

I will advise contacting a physiotherapist who can help you with shoulder mobilization and help to regain the full range of motion of the shoulder. also, he will be able to help you with strengthening the muscles of the shoulder girdle and the upper back scapular muscles.

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

Regards,
