What Causes Severe Pain In The Shoulders?

I was once diagnosed with arthritis in my shoulder. Never experienced any discomfort until the past few months. I am having severe pain now, pretty much constantly and getting worse almost everyday. I can t sleep, or use it much. What kind of arthritis would this be? Never mind.

hello sir/madam,
there are different kinds of arthritis which may effect your shoulder joints like
osteoarthritis(characterized by a combination of joint pain, tenderness, and stiffness)
rheumatoid arthritis( warmth in your joints,stiffness especially in the morning,rheumatoid nodules in your shoulders or arms
fatigue, weight loss, or fever)
post traumatic arthritis( usually after fractures and dislocation)
avascular necrosis(progressive disease- asymptomatic disease to mild pain and eventually it can cause severe pain)
rotator cuff tear arthropathy(intense pain and muscle weakness that can make lifting overhead difficult).
thank you
