More likely rotator cuff tendonitis or bursitis. I doubt nerve entrapment or pressure as that usually causes numbness/tingling type of sensation. Of course, the test of choice here is an MRI

Tendonitis/bursitis requires a pretty strenuous physical therapy regimen to improve. Sometmes even cortisone injections are needed.

Try an exercise regimen first, under the direction of a trainer- should be lots of range of motion exercises. If that doesn't help, then you really need an MRI to rule out a rotator cuff tear
