I think you are having subacromial bursitis. I would suggest you to get MRI of the shoulder and if report come positive for this then i would suggest you to meet a physio and take hot water fomentaion. This will provide you good pain relief. Also if there is any nerve compression or rotator cuff tear then you can get treatment from orthopaedic surgeon.
