Brief Answer:
Can be muscular pain or spasm.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
A sudden pain in the biceps and shoulder area can be due to an injury or a muscle spasm or a stiffness in the shoulder joint. This can happen due to an inflammation also. For immediate relief you can do a hot compress and apply a local analgesic gel like Volini gel in the area. Taking a mild pain killer like Aleve will also help. In case the pain is persistent then do consult your orthopedician for a direct examination and get some oral muscle relaxants prescribed after proper diagnosis.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
