A member asked:

I have a pinched nerve in my shoulder that has hurt for 3 months and i have no health insurance until january.is there something i can do at home?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Local therapy: Use Aleve (naproxen) or Advil if not allergic. Google passive range of motion exercises for shoulder injury. Use BioFreeze as a liniment and get seen at your local Health Dept. clinic: not having health insurance does not excuse the need for a medical exam- get examined.
