Cracking sound does not equate to rotator cuff tear One needs to be unable to lift arm sideways for diagnosis of cuff tear Painless clicks can happen for multiple reasons Get Shoulder x rays and visit orthopaedic dr

Depends on whether it’s a partial or a complete tear . If complete , an arthroscopic repair is indicated most of the times .
Next Steps
Mri shoulder to confirm the diagnosis and the extent of the tear

If cracking sound from the joint is the only problem and you have no pain or restriction of motion or difficulty during any movement you need not worry about it. this is not the  symptom of rotator cuff tear
