Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
dear sir/ madam
if i were your treating doctor i would examine your shoulder and also your neck to find cause of this radicular pain,
i would examine neurological status of your upper limb then decide on management.
for tendinopathy i would recommend rotator cuff strenghtening exercises, analgesics, i would also add pregabalin for this radicular pain and again review after 3 weeks.
I find this answer helpful
