Hello sir, this is Dr. Hitin mathur from new delhi, welcome to lybrate. With regards to your shoulder, did you get an x ray done, if not get an x ray shoulder ap and a axial views. You may have a fracture. If there is no fracture and you still can't actively lift the arm, then there may be torn rotator cuff muscles. An mri of the shoulder will help in finding that out. Revert back with the investigations.
