Suggest Treatment For Pain On The Right Shoulder

My husband has had a pain in his right shoulder and I keep putting movilate on twice a day and it does not seem to improve. Also he has a cough which is worst when he lays down. I have tried to persuade him to see a doctor and he puts if off by saying he thinks it is getting better. And also says it is due to gardening. He is 78 years old. What can you suggest.
