What Causes Lump On Shoulder And Pain In The Arm?

My mother in-law is diagnosed with lump formation on the top of the shoulder which can be physically felt. In the X-ray water accumulation is found. There is severe pain when the hand is moves. Doctors given medication for 3 weeks, and if does not reduce, they said we need to go for surgery. Please advice what condition is this and what are the causes.
