Have a shoulder issue

Cannot squat because my right arm will not bend to reach the bar, pain originates at front of the arm just were the delt attaches to the arm.
I can bench press but not overhead press. Any ideas?
 
Did it just start happening, or do you remember straining it?

Perhaps try trigger points & stretches after in the entire arms, chest/pecs & shoulders, both arms, whether or not it is only the one arm.
Maybe some L-flyes after workout, very light weight ie: not more than #5er for a few sets of 10.
 
Leg presses
Dead lifts
DB deads or like a suitcase pull...
ie: Trap bar deads (off blocks maybe to get a deeper ROM)
Do front squats hurt too?
 
Yeah they do. I tried squatting with the smith machine, used my wrist straps as "handles" so I wouldn't have to reach back, that was ok
 
Try Bulgarian split squats with dumbells. Looks funny but very effective plus adds stability work for the leg in front
