What is the best treatment and specialist for severe shoulder pain lasting 6 weeks?

Hello, I currently have some severe pain in my shoulder. It's been bad for about 6 weeks so I stopped any physical activity. I've woken up and I can barely move it. I am unable to lift it without pain. What would be the best course of action and is there a certain specialist you would advise? Doctors or physio?
