Acupuncture may help alleviate strain in the deltoid muscle by promoting blood flow, reducing inflammation, and facilitating pain relief. By targeting specific acupuncture points, it can encourage relaxation and improve overall muscle function. However, it's important to consult a healthcare professional to determine if acupuncture is suitable for your specific condition and to consider it as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.
The CPT code for evaluation and management of deltoid muscle pain and swelling would typically fall under an office or outpatient visit code, such as CPT code 99202-99205 for new patient visits or 99212-99215 for established patient visits, depending on the complexity of the evaluation and management provided by the healthcare provider.
Strains are common muscle injuries caused by overuse or overstretching.
Tear would occur in the muscle, and fluid would often build up and cause the muscle to swell. The best thing to do for treatment is to either get some ice and elevate the posture of your pulled muscle, keep the ice on it up to 24 hours or just elevate it and rest it at, home it will soon go away. It usually lasts up to 2-3 weeks. Movement is restricted because of the pain, so don't try to move it or it will probably strain a lot more if if you take a wrong move.

I would look at NCCAOM. This is non-profit and will teach you acupuncture. I would also look at DABMA for help with schools.
Axillary nerve supplies the deltoid and the teres minor mucsles. So you wouldn't be able to abduct your arm otherwise. It is also the lateral cord of the brachial plexus.
