Neurogenic pain: The symptoms described sound s like a nerve entrapment pain. It is common to get shooting pains from the shoulder to the elbow when a nerve gets pinched in the upper back and shoulder region. Visit a doctor to see whether you need an MRI to evaluate further

May not fit: May not be simple but could be coming from the neck to the elbow. Because there are so many systems involved here you need to discuss this with your physician
