    Clicky painful shoulders?

    Does anyone else get an annoying pain in the shoulder? And it clicks al the time... I'll probably go see a Physio in the next week or 2, but I've had it for yonks and always just ignore it as its more annoying than painful. Anyone have it, had it or know what it is?
