Any medical professionals out there?

I really really don’t like going to the Drs so will avoid at all costs if possible. Do I need to make an appt or is it just a strain? Just to add I am having blood tests on a separate issue in 2 weeks time re digestion issues. So my symptoms listed below, do I suck it up and keep taking paracetamol or could it be something that needs investigating

clicking shoulder
pain radiating from shoulder up neck and across part of chest
it feel like I’m having stabbing pain in collar bone.
rest of joints / bones occasional aches / stabs

im possibly peri definitely overweight but I’m an active fat person. I had clicking joints before maybe a year ago but it wasn’t as painful as now. Had the recent pain for maybe 3/4 weeks. It is mainly on right side, I’m right handed

any ideas?

thank you

How recently did this start? I’m not a medical professional, but if it’s recent (past month or so). I can’t imagine they would suggest anything more than ibuprofen/paracetamol, ice and rest. They likely wouldn’t refer you to hospital at this stage so I’d be inclined to wait it out.

Mindutopia it has been the past 4 / 5 weeks. That’s what I’m thinking to wait it out. It’s the clicking as well it makes me feel a bit sick, not physically just like bone on bone, finger nails down a blackboard kind of sick.
