A tendon tear can happen slowly over time or suddenly -- after a turn or twist -- usually in the tendons of your rotator cuff or biceps. What to know:
If your shoulder hurts and you have trouble breathing or tightness in your chest, call 911 right away -- those could be signs of a heart attack. You also should ask someone to drive you to the emergency room if you can’t use your shoulder to move your arm or have sudden swelling or intense pain.
If the pain isn't that bad but it doesn’t get better or your shoulder is swollen, red, tender, or warm, see your doctor. He’ll ask questions about your symptoms and see how easily you can move your arm around.
