Get setup up properly.
When you grasp the bar and lift it up to the beginning position - before lowering the bar, push your shoulders down against the bench - bring your shoulder blades together....then bring the weight down. When you press back up, make certain that you keep your shoulder pressed against the bench and that you don't lurch forward with them. At the top of the range, shoulders should still be in that position - rinse and repeat!

By all means try the adjustments suggested here. You might also wish to investigate decline presses. Some people can not flat bench successfully, even with suitable form adjustment, but are fine on declines.

Hope you're able to find a solution that works for you.

I recommend doing some rota cuff exercises first, as this stabalises the shoulder joint. Look online and im sure there will be loads of articles on it.

Plus, proper form, makes sure its your pecs doing the work not other muscle groups

Finally, make sure you work your body around 90 degree angels, only take the bar down so your elbows are inline with your chest, not beyound as this will stress the shoulder joint.
