Shoulder stretches to relieve shoulder pain should be done gently, and never cause pain. If these or any exercises cause pain, back off on the intensity with which you are performing the stretch or exercise. Or, maybe choose a different routine all together.
Here is a list of exercises and stretches for the shoulder using an exercise ball. This routine can be done in order, or just individually.
If you don’t have an exercise ball, you could instead use a chair, a bed or a couch, for example, to reach your arm onto. As long as your arm is straight or lower, but not above your back.
