Pain may not be starting from the shoulder but could be from neck. Hence it is radiating to the hand also..
And as the previous x-ray and doctor also suggested there is tightness of the neck muscles which lead to change in the shape of the spine which could lead to disc protrusion and nerve compression
You may need medication related to it.. consult nearest doc or consult online for prescription..
Next Steps
for the time being you may use over the counter drug tab mefthal spas twice a day after food
tab Omez 20 mg before breakfast
oint flexabenZ local application
hot packs
if physiotherapist available IFT TENS can be taken
Health Tips
+keep a towel roll under your neck while sleeping
+don't try to bend or turn the neck for the time being
+if you wanna see behind you have to turn your body as a whole rather than just turning your neck
+during watching a computer/tv maintain a position such that the neck is at level with the former.. there shouldn't be bending
+no using phones or laptops while lying on bed
any other suggestions ping me..
