Shoulder pain can be a complex issue that often intertwines with various physical and psychological factors. In your case, it seems that you are also experiencing concerns related to urological health, particularly regarding the size of your penis and its implications on your self-esteem and sexual health.
Firstly, let's address the shoulder pain. Shoulder pain can arise from a variety of causes, including muscle strain, tendonitis, bursitis, or even issues related to the cervical spine. Given that you mentioned a situation involving embarrassment and self-consciousness, it’s important to recognize that psychological factors such as anxiety can also contribute to physical symptoms, including muscle tension and pain. Stress and anxiety can lead to muscle tightness, particularly in the neck and shoulder areas, which may exacerbate any existing discomfort.

In terms of treatment, physical therapy can be beneficial for shoulder pain. A physical therapist can provide exercises to strengthen the shoulder muscles, improve flexibility, and correct posture. Additionally, modalities such as heat therapy, ultrasound, or electrical stimulation may help alleviate pain. If the pain persists, it may be advisable to consult with an orthopedic specialist to rule out any structural issues.

Now, regarding your concerns about penis size and self-esteem, it’s crucial to understand that penis size varies widely among individuals, and what is considered "normal" can differ significantly. The average erect penis size is typically reported to be around 5 to 6 inches, with a range that varies. It’s important to remember that size does not determine sexual satisfaction for either partner. Factors such as emotional connection, communication, and technique play a much more significant role in sexual relationships.

If you find yourself preoccupied with thoughts about your size, it may be helpful to speak with a mental health professional. They can assist you in addressing any underlying anxiety or self-esteem issues. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is particularly effective in helping individuals reframe negative thoughts and develop a healthier self-image.

As for the question of whether you can increase size, there are many products and procedures marketed for penis enlargement, but most lack scientific support and can even be harmful. Surgical options exist, but they come with risks and should be considered carefully. It’s essential to approach this topic with caution and to prioritize your overall health and well-being over societal pressures or unrealistic standards.

In conclusion, shoulder pain can often be managed effectively through physical therapy and lifestyle modifications, while concerns about penis size should be addressed with a focus on mental health and self-acceptance. Remember, seeking help from professionals in both physical and mental health can provide you with the support you need to navigate these challenges.
