Last night before bed I was tossing and turning and realized my shoulder was really sore. Whenever I move it I get a sharp pain like a knife is being stuck into it right on my shoulder and upper shoulder blade. Do you have any clue what it could be?

you might have a pinched nerve causing the sharp pain. sleep on your back so that you do not place any stress on the shoulder. apply a moist heating pad to the shoulder for twenty minutes, several times a day. Massage an analgesic cream into the area.
I recommend you see a chiropractor as soon as possible to get pain relief and find out what is going on with your shoulder.
