What causes a 'clicking' noise and sound when you move your shoulder? there is some pain with it and i can't raise my arm without more pain
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Subacromial bursitis: Most likely it is a bursa which is inflamed but there may also be a rotator cuff issue or biciptal tendonitis - if not treated in timely fashion - may result in frozen shoulder - tx. May be as simple as rest or physical therapy or steroid inj. Or combo of them all.
