Pain in left shoulder limited movement of left arm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More info needed: If there is no history of sprain or other injury, you may have tendonitis of the shoulder. Arthritis of the shoulder joint is another possibility. Treatment consists of taking anti-inflammatory medications like Advil or Aleve (naproxen) and avoiding stress on the shoulder joint. If symptoms persist consult an orthopedic specialist for diagnosis and treatment.
