Get an exam and MRI: Popping sounds that are associated with pain need further investigation. Step one is get an orthopedic exam of your shoulder. Most of the time you can narrow down the possibilities or have a good understanding of the problem from the exam and your full history. Then the study of choice is the MRI to tell us the soft tissue problem. A swollen inflamed tendon, torn labrum, rotator cuff injury.
