Crepitation-shoulder: A certain degree of crepitus can be normal. However, if you have painful crepitus, or if you have limitation in your range of motion or instability of your shoulder, you should visit an orthopaedic surgeon for a physical exam. Crepitus can be from the bone, the joint, tenosynovitis or bursitis, or a fracture, which is unlikely without serious pain. Good luck.
