Shoulder pain constant ache and trouble sleeping
I have had shoulder pain for the last 5 weeks. Caused by my occupation as a personal support worker for 28 years. And probably overuse of the right arm/shoulder. The ultrasound shows no tear of the rotator cuff and doctor has advised me to consider a cortisone injection. I have been taking anti-inflammatories for the past 5 weeks with little effect. Naproxen 500 mg twice daily. I am on modified work and barely using the right arm for anything.
I am49 and in otherwise good health. Would cortisone be okay in the soft tissues of shoulder
