Need more info: The shoulder "hurting" may be secondary to a variety of reasons. Need more history, description of the pain, where it goes, what movements make it painful, etc. Would suggest just warm moist packs, 3 times per day for about 15 min. If still painful in 2-3 days, or worsening, or new symptoms, then would suggest MD visit.
