Be seen: I would be seen first just to make sure the cause of your pain is accurately diagnosed. Certain cardiac conditions can potentially present with spontaneous onset of shoulder symptoms. A massage cam potentially be helpful if the source of the pain is muscular, but again would be wise to be accurately diagnosed first.
