At rest it doesn't hurt, only when I reach forward, upwards and most noticeably when I reach across my body. I can reach behind my back with no problems. It hurts to lie on that side at night. In the last few days it has been clicking (the clicks are a bit painful). Today I played squash again (as you do), and noticed my arm was weaker than usual, but that may have been due to the pain (??).
I have subluxed both my shoulders once or twice in the past.
The internet tells me it might a labrum tear - your job is to tell me it's not. Thanks!!
