Its nasty but it's a virus. Sadly this means that your GP cannot give you anything to get rid of it.
Best looking at your favourite over the counter or home made solutions to make it less uncomfortable for yourself.
ps re your shoulder, you could well be spot on with your thinking as to why it is hurting, loads of coughing etc will not be helping matters either.
