Intervention Needed
Talk to a rheumatologist. Arthritis gets thrown around like “chronic lyme’s”
At times. Make sure you’re getting a proper dx from a rheum doc. Lots of things can cause shoulder pain.
Then hit up a PT.

Tylenol doesn't do a whole lot for arthritis

No arthritis here, but I would often wake w/shoulder pain until I started using

You don’t need to see a rheumatologist to diagnose osteoarthritis

Likely true but osteoarthritis gets used a lot for things that aren’t.

I trust my doctor. I've had other shoulder issues in the last year.

Hahaha. You are absolutely correct. I was thinking of rheumatoid arthritis.

Not good advice. Shoulder arthritis is an easy call for someone who see it

You could try out a shoulder relief wedge pillow like one of these
