I was using a screwdriver in an awkward position and heard several bad sounding and feeling pops in my right shoulder and the pain has not gone away. ?

Well this certainly: doesn't sound very good and if you are still having pain it most likely means you have done yourself some harm (rotator cuff, ligaments, sprain, etc.) Not unreasonable to seek professional evaluation this week especially if you develop swelling or continued pain.
