Suggest Treatment Options For Shoulder Pain

I have had some shoulder pain that was very sudden. I did not work out or do any strenuous activities lately but i have this pain. It started in a small area on my shoulder blade, but has since spread to a larger portion of my shoulder blade as well as my upper arm, like under the armpit. The skin is sensitive to the touch, like a burning sensation.
