stroke don't present as pain. you may have strecth or bone fracture when you fall. you should take a X-RAY if it's not getting better.

Hello, is there any injury or pressure? Is there numbness? Do you have high blood pressure? diabetes? obesity? If you have the above medical history and are older, suspected of cerebral infarction, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a check.

It sounds more like injury, how long has it been? Does it get better when you rest your arm for a couple of days? If not, you do need to see a doctor.

Answer 3

I crashed while I was mountain bikeing and fell on my shoulder, it has been two months since it happened and the pain has not gone away should I see my doctor or wait to see if it heals on its own

Since it has been two months, the slight injury can recover by yourself. You are suggested to see an orthopedist and do CT and MRI scans to see whether there is fracture or rotator cuff tear. You may need surgery for treatment.
