See ORS : My advice would be to get a referral to a board certified ors who sees ' new' shoulder patients frequently.You need a thorough exam / x-rays by a specialist if your pain is not improving w/ time and possibly a nsaid. Almost certain u didn't see an ors as the " impingement test" would confirm your diagnosis of bursitis...Best of luck!
