Hello,

In case of rotator cuff problem there is dull aching pain which aggravates with movements of shoulder.Pain also occur with special movement and special position of shoulder.

Tge burning type of pain most probably signifies presence of nerve issues.You may have pinching of nerves or there can be other neuropathy due to high blood sugar level or due to thyroid or due to heavy strain over your left side or due to swelling issues. At present you should do following to have relief-

-Take rest.
-Take mild analgesic like ibuprofen for relief.
-Take some nerve supplements like neurobion.

If all this do not resolve your issues in next 3-5 days then please consult to your doctor and get yourself investigated.
