I was doing incline dumbbell press with some heavy weight. I was trying to maximize range of motion so I attempted to control decent. However, at the top of one of my reps I guess my left shoulder just crapped out and my arm rolled a little back.
I'm pretty flexible and have had no problems with movement before. In fact I'm double jointed in a lot of places (including my shoulder)
But I've had a dull 3-4 pain for a week now in my shoulder and any lifting with my tricep or bicep causes a burning 4-5 pain in the center of either muscle. I've not gone to the gym since and I'm just waiting for recovery but should I be doing anything else?
My roommates brother is a semi pro ball player and he says it's a rotator cuff issue and I should be doing movement exercises to target it, so should I just go to the gym to squat and do muscle therapy while I recover?

incline dumbbell press is a useless exercise for chest you retard. Not only does it not target upper chest like bros like you think it does you can use less weight than on the flat bench so your muscles work less and grow less also using dumbbells means you can use less weight than barbell to your muscels are growing less than with the barbell bench

If you have a fucked up shoulder the last thing you should be doing is squatting with a straight bar, if you have a SSB then fair enough but I doubt it

It's strength training to help my OHP, I've been not doing any incline for a while and my OHP is lagging compared to my other lifts, so on chest week I've been supplementing it.
But using less weight is interesting I'll keep that in mind.
Do you know anything about the injury?

>weight is the only factor for growth

no brand of machines go anywhere near heavy enough for growth
even those you load with free weight plates usually have like a max of 225lb per side, which is nothing
