I am mother. Two weeks back I fell down from my couch and suffered sprain in my right shoulder. I visited a doctor who suggested I have stretched and injured the ligaments. Treated with medications, still I am having difficulty in raising up and articulating my right arm. I noticed further more the skin under the right biceps is sagging while the same is fine with my left arm. Kindly suggest what can be done. Thanks.

Well, you have rotator cuff tear. It happens in this age group commonly. Most doctors don't take it seriously. You need specialist care. Shoulder specialist orthopedic surgeon. Even general orthopaedic surgeon may ignore it. If its cuff tear because of trauma, you need to get mri with 3 tesla machine at the earliest. Longer you weight, worse is outcome if it's cuff tear.
