Torn ligament or something else?!


Question: Torn ligament or something else?
About 3 months ago i was playing tennis and moved my shoulder in a way that made some kind of noise, but really did not have any intinal pain. For a week i did have some pain but thought it was just a pulled muslce. Weeks went by and still no relief so i went to the doctor. He took an x-ray and said i pulled some ligaments and gave me some anti-inflammatory drugs. After taking the drugs and about a month and a half later still no relief. So i called and made another appointment in a couple of days. I am just afarid of what the doctor will say. What could it be? Could i have torn a ligament and if so does that require surgery?
