Hello, Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you are suffering from muscular pain in your back in shoulder region. Treatment of it is rest and analgesics (diclofenac three times a day after meals). Muscle relaxant such as thiocolchicoside can be added. Evion LC, Vitamin B-complex and vitamin C supplementation are useful. You can get your thyroid (T3,T4andTSH) and diabetic (blood sugar) investigation to rule out these causes. However, you can get his chest x-ray done to exclude bony pain. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care.
