What could cause shoulder pain?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Anything.: From bursitis to muscle strain, to a torn rotator cuff or arthritis. These are some of the entities that can give you shoulder pain. At your age, it may be a tendinitis or bursitis. Start with a non- surgical sports medicine md, to sort out what's going on.

See below: There are many causes, but the most common are an injury or irritation to the rotator cuff muscles/tendons, arthritis in the shoulder joint, or a pinched nerve in your neck. See your physician for a complete work up.
