I'm probably going to be way off base, but I am unable to move my arms and I find the best solution is to use armrest which support the arm and shoulder. I still have shoulder pain, but if I have the proper amount of air in my cushioned and I'm sitting in the appropriate spot in my chair, the pain is minimal.
I know it's more difficult when you drive chair with your hand, so I don't really have an answer there. A lot of my shoulder pain is because I have to have the back of my chair slightly reclined, because I get a tremendous amount of bladder pain if I sit upright. I feel for you and I hope you're able to get some sort of relief which also improves your quality of life.
