I have been a continuous pain in my one side of shoulder since 6 months. Now, I also feel numbness sometimes in my hand. I have taken different pain killers but these painkillers don't work. Please suggest me that what should I do now?

Hot Fomentation. Gentle Shoulder Stretching. Core Strengthening Exercises. Gentle Neck Exercises. Avoid sleeping on affected side.. Warm up and cool down is a must.
