What Causes Sensitivity And Pain In Shoulder?

I have a very sensitive right shoulder, right where the arm connects to the shoulder. I thought maybe it was a bruised bone, as I spent many hours sleeping on it while traveling on plane. However, this is not a bone. The sensitivity as at the surface or just under. Any sort of touch to the affected area results in serious burning pain, enough to make me tear eyed. I have a strong threshold for pain, so I fear that I might have torn a muscle or something of that nature.

Hi, take some rest, do not check if its paining by putting pressure on it, and take some analgesics like diclofenac 100mg SR tab daily for 3 weeks.
