I'm dealing with a neck spasm and shoulder muscle pain for the past couple of days, and there's a slight swelling near the right side of my jaw. I've already tried applying ointment and taking painkillers, but its not getting any better. Should I be worried about this, or is there something else I should be doing?

I've had shoulder bursitis for 6 months from a lifting injury and been on a lot of NSAIDs and anti-inflammatory meds. My doctor says it's chronic now and needs surgery. How risky is the surgery and how long until I can recover and get back to training?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
