Before the incident

I was repairing steam line in ceiling. I was removing piping and had 2 pipe wrenches unscrewing pipe and pulling on pipe wrenches I felt pain in right shoulder after finishing repair. Thought after time it would get better but the pain is still there and hurts when I lay down at night causing restless sleep. Hurts doing normal work.
