hope this msg finds u in good health..
i have gone through your complaints and under stand your concern.
u seem to have supraspinatus tendinitis which means swelling and inflammation of soft tissues in shoulder region.
if neglected it may restrict shoulder movements and cause frozen shoulder.

physiotherapy and hot fomentation should help.
nothing to worry about.
hope your question has been answered.
