A member asked:

Shoulder pain from anxiety? normal ekg, chest xray and labs. occasional rise in bp due to anxiety (130/100). otherwise 120/80 and below

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Different causes: If the shoulder discomfort is worse with motions, there could be a chronic tendonitis or rotator cuff problem. Anxiety shouldn't have any effect. Try applying local heat and liniment and, if you can take them, antiinflammatories such as aleve (naproxen) or Ibuprofen may help. If no results get a shoulder exam by an orthopedic surgeon.
