    That happened to me 2 days ago. I’m not sure how to make it totally go away but I just moved my shoulder around a lot. It really hurt at first but after a while it was better.

    Hot bath with radox in it,hot water bottle and a couple of inuprofen…Should be better by morning :)

    Take a good hot shower sweetie and try some ibuprofen…..sounds like you got yourself a pinched nerve!! Try not to sleep on the couch anymore-I always seem to get a kink whenever I fall asleep there!!!Good luck! You might also try some type of liniment oil or rub too such as ben gay-take care!!!

    Take a hot bath.
    WHat probably happened is you cut off the blood flow to a muscle and it has cramped up. The only real way to free up a cramped muscle is with moist heat.
    Also, take some Advil (or as a generic ibuprofen) to help reduce the inflammation.

    hot and cold pads foe about 8 eights

    that is SOO normal so i just suggest you exercise it a lil and it will go away soon

    blue goo from walmart pharmacy will help with muscle or joint pain, but perhaps you should see a dr, shoulder or arm pain could be signs of a heart attack also

    contact your dr. they might have arthuritius in them or have a spur that needs to be taken care of.
