Can Pain Across The Right Shoulder Blade Down To The Right Arm Indicate Arthritis?

I started having pain across my right shoulder blade down to my right arm. Areas where the pain is are always sore. When I am experiencing this pain there is a dull ache in my right hand. Over the counter medication help with the pain a little. I am thinking that I may be suffering from arthritis. What do you think?
