My right shoulder always feels it needs to crack around my trapezius, and has pain/tightness. my friend( who knows massage techniques but does not have real training) says my shoulder is locked. is there any other reasons it would do this?

: Not feasible to provide precision as question is a bit ambiguous. But if you do have decreased shoulder motion, you could possess adhesive capsulitis, perhaps secondary to thyroid or diabetic causation. See a doctor, and evaluate your symptoms.
