Assessment by an Orthopaedic Surgeon is recommended before recommending any treatment. This could be just a muscular strain or it could be an injury to the rotator cuff muscles in the shoulder.

The cause could be either a rotator cuff sprain or tear, or bursitis due to impingement. You need formal assessment, and possibly an Ultrasound scan to look at rotator cuff tendon integrity if clinically suspected tear. Treatment mostly is conservative with activity modification, anti inflammatories, sometimes an injection and physiotherapy to strengthen cuff muscles. Surgical indications are few and very specific.
Next Steps
Please see an orthopaedic upper extremity surgeon.
