Health question. Just started today, a sharp pain in left shoulder.?

The sharp pain is in the upper arm/shoulder. Funny thing, it seems to only hurt when I sit down. Pain starts as soon as i sit down, and goes away a few seconds after I stand up.

    Sounds like a rotator cuff strain. Take ibuprofen for about a week. If it doesn't improve see your doctor. I had to have a steroid injection to get rid of mine. But it worked in a couple of days.
