Your p/t is your best guide, but fwiw ... my experience has been (confirmed by my p/t, who is also a cycling coach, working at my university's sports med. clinic) that cycling in/of itself won't help or hinder recovery from this particular ache and pain provided one's bike fit is more or less 'on'. It does resolve over time (or did, in my case, for the most part) if one follows the prescribed exercises etc.
This. But unlike Badger, it's unlikely that your PT will have a clue re your riding question. I had the condition and continued to ride a couple hundred miles a week. My shoulder just wasn't an issue. Now putting down the convertible top on my Mazda Miata while seated in the front seat - THAT was an issue! You don't try it more than once....
