General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I think you should do an x-ray of the arm and shoulder to see the conditions of the joint. You should have done an X-ray since the day of the accident.

Take anti-inflammatory drugs such as Advil or acetaminophen for pain. Try to have rest and avoid movement that causes pain.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka , General & Family Physician
