I have had shoulder problems for 30 years. I can tell you that rest and ice are the best medicines. However, if you tore something you might have it looked at. An orthopedic will do a physical examination after taking an xray just to be sure there are no fractures. Even if there is a small fracture all he would do is put you in a sling and tell you to rest it. You know that already.
I doubt you would need further treatment unless saw bones finds something and then you're in for an MRI. By the time all this passes, you'll probably be healed. I like to ride a bit but the jarring through the bars is not good. I'd say take a hiatus and not ride, especially 26 miles. YMMV
