I just went to see my Doctor today for very similiar pain. Some movements bother me greatly, with the pain in the same area (fortunately for me it doesn't hurt to swing a golf club, yay!), and he told me some very interesting things:
My pain is most likely caused by poor posture, and the result of sitting at a desk, hunched over a computer. I think about my posture sometimes, but, I think i may take it a bit more seriously at this point.
He also gave me a note for a phys. therapist, and wants me to see one for about 12 weeks. Hey, I'll give it a shot.
But - and this one steamed me just a little - he told me I should work out with weights. Man, I'm not the most cut, or musclebound dude in the world, but I do look like i work out. Then he proceeded to explain some exercises to me (military press, reverse flyes, etc). i know he saw me roll my eyes.
Anyway, check your posture out, and make sure there are no real deficiencies between your left and right sides.
