Left Side upper back pains

2017-11-18 06:25:48
Have pains in left shoulder upper muscle as well as shoulder calf. Also weakness on upper left arm and muscle stiffness. Have been prescribed Chlorzoxazone by GP and had done physiotherapy which temporarily relieves problem. What would be best way forward, see a rheumatologist or orthopedic doctor? Have also been diagnosed with gastritis (could this be causing this)
