If you have shoulder pain with feelings of tightness in your chest or a hard time breathing, this could signal a heart attack. You should also seek medical attention if your shoulder pain is caused by an injury if your joint appears deformed, if you aren’t able to use the joint, or if you have sudden swelling or intense pain. You should also get help if your hand or arm is numb or weak.
You should still seek medical attention for shoulder pain accompanied by redness, swelling, warmth, and tenderness around the joint. You may not need to seek immediate attention to this kind of pain, but you shouldn’t wait too long.
