    It sounds like you could possibly have weak shoulder.

    if you have a history of weak shoulders or shoulder injuries you could have this similar pain, you get this pain because your shoulder on your left arm cannot support the weight and gets help from more muscles which hurts the arm. ice and heat when it happens and try and strengthen the shoulder with light workouts that have rotation motions or lifting and holding motions.

    hope this helps.
