Shoulder pain: Any chest pressure like an elephant sitting on your chest? If so, you better call 911 and go to the ER for possible heart attack!

Multiple Causes: Could be a muscle or a nerve but it can also be a symptom of heart disease. It really depends on the clinical situation and other symptoms are present. If you are still having symptoms you should go to the ED.
