My shoulder, upper ribs and rotator cuff area has been hurting for about 3 months. it snaps and pops all the time. do you know what it is?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Busitis, biceps,: Popping in the shoulder area could be a result of bursitis, biceps pathology or a snapping scapula. If it has been going on for 3 months, it is best to have a shoulder specialist take a look.
