Question

MRI report   Hello, doctor.

My name is Adele, I have been having this pain in my right shoulder for a long time. Whenever I raise my arm and move it around or extend it, the joint of the shoulder hurts. I have had an MRI done (Report attached) and the doctor prescribed Etoria (Etoricoxib) and Reparil-Dragees. I have been using the meds for two weeks now and the pain hasn't really gone away competely. How could I relieve the pain? And for how long should I take the meds?

Thank you.

Dear Adelle,
This Orthopedic Chicago Podiatrist located in West Loop 60661, Roscoe Village 60618, Ukrainian Village 60622, Elmhurst 60126 & Bartlett 60103 says,
For your shoulder pain,
The report is not suggestive of anything serious & indicates a successful operation.
Some anti-inflamatories work some some people better than others.
Perhaps a different anti-inflamatory.
That said-these conditions respond best to physical therapy & gentle stretching & exercise-shown to you by the therapist.
Hope this helps & Good Luck!
