Hello,
Most likely cause of constant shoulder pain interfering with movements indicate muscle sprain or strain in usual instances, with exceptional cases of rotator cuff tendon injury insidiously. I would recommend a physician evaluation on primary basis to fix the underlying cause and guide accordingly. Till time being approach would be analgesic spray with capsaicin, tablets as ibuprofen after meals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
