Shoulder Pain

[southern151]

I know that several of you guys here have had shoulder issues lately. I'm looking for some insight.

About a week ago, my shoulder started hurting. It started off just a dull pain as though I had slept on it wrong. That's really all that I thought about it. Since then, it has gotten progressively worse and is getting to the point that it wakes me up at night, often more than once. Normally, if ya sleep on it wrong, it goes away in a couple of days but, this seems to keep coming on and it feels like it's deep in the joint. Certain positions don't hurt at all, like in an odd position at my side or straight out in front of me. Every point in between hurts like hell so, it's hard to get it out in front of me which, in turn, makes it dang hard to paint a car!

I've never been a football or baseball player so, that's not it. Really, aside from a paint gun or 12 oz curl, I don't do much at all with it! What's y'alls take on it? Am I just being a sissy or, you guys with experience, think it's more?
