Get eval: Different muscles and different tendons are used for different motions and actions in the shoulder. Getting an exam can determine if you strained or sprained a specific muscle or tendon/ligament that is affecting just your ability to lift even 10 pounds. Once diagnosed the proper treatment which may include medication or therapy, etc. Can be prescribed. Best wishes.
