Two things I did that stopped the pain:
Get rid of that heavy purse that you put on your shoulder! I was not a believer when the doc told me that but...she was right. She has the same problem and she doesn't even carry a purse. She has a couple of blank checks in her pocket, her DL, one credit card. That's it. I said "but doc, I need to carry some makeup for touch-up" she said keep extra in your desk, in your car, where ever you like but don't carry it in your purse. I said "but doc,...." and her answer to all my "buts" was to keep extra where you need it but get the weight off your shoulder.
Second, I changed the number of pillows I slept with. My shoulder and neck were huring so badly I could barely function. I was going to PT and using all kinds of drugs and it turns out it was my sleeping position. A simple change in your sleeping position could be all that is needed.
