Hello, will suggest first to rule out any injury to shoulder go for primary things like x-ray for any pathology. If it's normal Check for thickness of pillow and mattress is it proper or not and check for material sagging. Correct posture and workstation with the help of ergonomics. Then strengthening of muscles is important. Seek physiotherapist and Ergonomist. Regards
