Default Shoulder Pain During Flat Bench

I have sharp pain in my left shoulder when I do flat BB Bench Press. Even with just the bar, it hurts. I can usually bench with DB's and on an incline without pain (although it still happens a little from time to time, but not as painful). I went to an Ortho who did x-ray and MRI and said all it is an impingement and some inflammation and all I need is rest. I would rest it for over a month (5 weeks) and it still hurt when I continued. Is there anything I can do or should I just say goodbye to the BB Bench forever?
