“What should I do for my shoulder pain?”
I'm 25, and my shoulder has been hurting me for more than 3 months, since I last played baseball actually. What should I do for my shoulder pain? Should I see a chiropractor?

You can absolutely get it evaluated by your chiropractor. I work with shoulder issues all the time. Depending on the severity, they might send you to the orthopedist for special imaging.
Yes, you can see your chiropractor. I would look for one that commonly treats sports injuries.
The shoulder is the most complicated joint in the body. 3 months of pain is not a good sign. In my office I will stretch the shoulder muscles then adjust the shoulder. If after 6 adjustments without great improvement it is MRI time.
A Doctor of Chiropractic would be a wonderful place to start. Your now chronic pain could be simple mis-alignment or a rotator cuff tear, and a DC can evaluate that.
Yes and have an X-ray preformed.
A Chiropractor or a Physical Therapist will be able to diagnose and treat any shoulder issues.
You need to get an exam and possible some imaging.
