I have been seeing an orthopedic doctor due to pain in my left armpit and shoulder, and they found that a muscle has come off the bone in my arm. The doctor mentioned that the rotator cuff might have come off, which is unusual. I am currently on Oxycodone and Ketoprofen for pain, and I am being referred to a pain management clinic. Is there anything that can be done for this condition?
