It very well can, but of course it isn't the only thing that causes shoulder pain. Depends on what type of abscess it is. If the pain is dull but persistent, and when you touch/move your shoulder it severely worsens, then it may be caused by an abscess.

What are the causes of shoulder pain and how to get relief from that?

Various causes can trigger shoulder pain. The most prominent cause of shoulder pain is rotator cuff tendinitis. It is a condition that is characterized by swollen tendons. Another common cause of shoulder pain is impingement syndrome, where the rotator cuff gets caught between the acromion and humeral head. Sometimes, shoulder pain results from injury to another location in your body, usually the neck or biceps. This is known as referred pain. Referred pain generally doesn’t get worse when you move your shoulder. Other causes of shoulder pain include arthritis, torn cartilage, rotator cuff, etc.   Physical therapy is a very effective and non-surgical treatment for treating shoulder pain. An experienced physical therapist can be beneficial in providing long-term relief from neck pain.
