Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Gall bladder stones and infection, duodenal ulcer and abscess under the right diaphragm can cause referred pain to right shoulder. Anything that can cause pain in the chest area, can cause pain in the shoulder area and the reverse is true too. Other than this the pain can be due to the joint itself.
Since I cannot examine you and know other related conditions you may be having, nor is a detailed history possible on net, I have listed the various possibilities that should be looked into. Please consult your PCP for primary examination followed by proper referral. Take care!
Thanks for the quick response thiGGer.
The pain is not aggravated when I move my arm. It is temporarily relieved by ibuprofen. When I bend over I'm reaching down. When I'm laying down I'm supine.
hi,
does your pain worsen with range of motion? anything relieves the pain? when you bend over, are you reaching down/forward? when laying down, are you supine or sidelying?
