Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

There might be possible ligament injury in the rotator cuff. Most often it might be a contusion only developed due to excessive use. As of now, you can take analgesics like Ibuprofen or Diclofenac for pain. Avoid physical exertion and apply ice packs. If pain persist, better to take an MRI scan to look for any ligament injury.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
