Shoulder pain: Pain from the shoulder complex represents 4 separate joints as well as the possibility of the pain being referred from the neck. The best way to determine the etiology of the pain is a good history followed by a comprehensive neuromusculoskelatal evaluation. If this is normal the the examination would be expanded to include the chest and diaphragm as causes of the pain. See a md/do for eval.

Sounds like tendonit: Shoulder tendonitis often behaves this way. An examination with your doctor can clarify this. Any recent falls? Unusual housecleaning ? [spring window-washing often triggers shoulder tendonitis from an overuse syndrome]
