Brief Answer:
Can be rotator cuff tear.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain and ache along with the popping is suggestive of a rotator cuff tear or a shoulder dislocation. This can be diagnosed after a direct physical examination and an MRI scan.
Do consult your orthopedician for proper diagnosis. Avoid raising your arm above your head till then.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
