AC joint injury: Sounds like an AC joint sprain or mild separation. This can be easily diagnosed with an x-ray and physical exam. An orthopedic surgeon or sports medicine doc should be able to diagnose and treat you. Low grade injuries are usually treated with rest, ice, and anti-inflammatories. Sometimes injections or even surgery are indicated. Best to have it looked at.
