A member asked:

Hi doc, after sleeping one night mostly on my right side. i woke up with a painful right shoulder and i noticed a bump on my lower right neck.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

StraIn: Most likely strain, perhaps neck & rotator cuff. Apply warm compress to neck, & be sure to keep elbow down when you sleep at night. Acetaminophen or NSAID (like naproxen, ibuprofen) for pain relief. Try that for 3 days & see if it helps. If not, then seek clinical advice. Hope that helps.
