Due to a medical condition i always had my shoulder in a shrugged position because if I lowered it i would feel pain.

Anyway i had an operation to fix my pain and i could finally lowered my shoulder.

Problem is... Because my should was like that for a few years my trapezius amd neck muscles are permanently tensed up,, causing me pain.

Before covid i had a steriod injection... It did nothing.

I know my muscle is tensed because if i ised a tense machine my neck muscle is soft amd squishy amd i have temporarily relieved of pain.

Does anyone have any solutions that could fix my tensed muscles forever

Can you pay to see a physio?
I had an excruciating arm pain for about a month. I eventually got a GP appointment and he told me it was tendonitis. I was given anti inflammatory tablets which didn’t help.
Went back and had a surprise steroid injection for ‘frozen shoulder’. No improvement.
I made an appointment with a physio, after a thorough examination she diagnosed an issue with my neck.
I had 20 minutes of being pulled and stretched and given excercises
I am now largely pain free..
