    I believe its a tear in the ligaments or connective tissues in the shoulder joint. Mostly caused by some type of throwing overhead or presses. Orthroscopic surgery is the way to go where they just remove part of the tear to alliviate pain which is caused by fluid build-up and rubbing irratating the nerves.
