Have been stretching in doorways and with a bar overhead - lie on floor, hold bar (I use a cane) straight up, then slowly move arms overhead as close to the floor as you can w/o pain. Doc says try cold packs and/or heat. Haven’t done that yet. I don’t have trouble breathing.

I have two rice bags that are microwaveable and they really help relieve the pain.
