Hi ,pain in arm could be because of cervical spondylosis or shoulder itself. As it increases with fan so it looks like a nerve pain from neck. Pl do hot fermentation & use some local applicants. Avoid overhead & painful activities.
Next Steps
If not relieved consult a Physiotherapist or orthopaedic Dr.
Health Tips
Avoid high impact activities.
