My arm hurts around the shoulder when i try lifting my arm and rolling it around. what does this sound like?

From an Orthopedic -: Point of view, it sounds a rotator cuff problem, like tendonitis versus a tear in it; bursitis or tendonitis of other tendons are also possible. See an orthopod to get proper diagnosis.
