Brief Answer:
Left shoulder pain can be extremely concerning

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

If you have shoulder pain, some common causes include:
Bursitis/Rotator Cuff Tendonitis
Rotator Cuff Tear
Frozen Shoulder
Calcific Tendonitis
Shoulder Instability
Shoulder Dislocation

The treatment of shoulder pain depends entirely on the cause of the problem.
Rest
Ice and Heat application
Stretching
Physical Theraphy
Anti-Inflammatory Medication

There is a pain on your left, so you must go for your cardiac check up also, do not ignore your left side pain to rule out any possible cardiac ailment.

I do hope that you have found something helpful and informative and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care.
