Suggest Treatment For Severe Shoulder Pain And Arm Pain

I have a nagging pain either in the muscle or bone in upper my arm that extends from the outer shoulder down just past the elbow, and this is the 4th day-Alleve dulls it but does not take it away-could this be arthritis or bone cancer? I do not play sports and I have done nothing different such as lifting, in my daily life. Thank you!
