How can help myself fall asleep with shoulder discomfort?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Experiment: Pain at night is one of the most common complaints patients with shoulder pain have. It can be difficult to resolve. Treatment should always begin with a correct diagnosis. Consult with a shoulder specialist. Pain medications and even sleeping pills don't always work either.
