Chronic pain in the upper trapezius, biceps, and triceps for 13 years, despite two rounds of physiotherapy, suggests a complex issue that may involve persistent muscle tension, posture problems, or possibly an underlying condition.
Next Steps
Gentle stretching and strengthening exercises tailored for your upper back and arms.
Consistent posture correction, especially if you have a sedentary lifestyle.
Heat therapy or self-massage to ease knots, but avoid overdoing it.
Health Tips
The lack of healing might indicate a need for a different approach, so a detailed evaluation by the physiotherapist is key.

Add nerve radiating exercises.
Eg. Pnf and do US for tissue healing and avoid contractions and if you're gym freak then avoid lifting heavy weights.
Do consult with Physiotherapist nearby.

The complex of pain you are complaining about may arise from various reasons and conditions. It will require a proper assessment and diagnosis. Please consult a physiotherapist online/offline. It will require a long term treatment (consider 4-6 weeks intermittently) as the condition is chronic. Later you will have to continue exercises by yourself as long as possible.
