Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuckfuckfuck it hurts.

I have a stabbing pain in my right shoulder that travels halfway down my arm. What the hell? Any ideas? Starting go away after 2 naproxen tabs.

Possiblities:

Torn rotator cuff - is it tender to the touch, some swelling?

Tendonitis - some swelling, maybe some visible bruising, tender to the touch?

Any recent hard jarring to the head/neck (a fall, slamming a sledge hammer down, a slam from behid)?
These can cause nerve inflammation in the C4 & C5 neck vertebrae which corresponds to the area from the clavicle to the tips of the fingers. Known as neuropathic radiculitis (nerve radiating pain)

There's also bursitis & arthritis.

You can pinch a rotator cuff with too much compression such as pushing the arm across the body till the sore arm elbow touches the opposing shoulder.

Frozen shoulder (aka Adhesive capulitis) can occur with seemingly no reason but usually occurs after injury to the affected arm causing it to be used a great deal less (immobilized). Also can occur for no reason in people over 40 y/o.

If it keeps up for more than a week go to the doctor & get a steroid shot directly into the affected shoulder. If that doesn't help then you'll need an MRI to tell exactly what the damage is.

Protip - always eat something before taking naproxen sodium. 2 OTC naproxen sodium is the same thing as expensive prescription naproxen sodium. Do not take more than 2 at a time. Do not take more than 4 in a day. Do not take aspirin, or anything NSAIDs with it.

Ice it down about 15 minutes at a time.

How the fuck are we supposed to tell? Want someone to bash your left shoulder in so it's symmetrical? Christ.
