Whats a good alternative movement for these? heavy side laterals?
im having a hard time doing them nearly every time i try to incorporate uprights and get terrible shoulder problems. Considering i cant really use them at all it seems, what movement should i use to work around them?

even that DB variation, if i do it with proper form, usually with elbows high, becomes PAINFUL and i can only perform them where at the top its almost a front raise of sorts.
i must have a bad shoulder impingement

sounds like your rotator cuff man, probably supraspinatus. you dont want to upset your rotator cuff other wise training will be out (except a cpl leg exercises) if it hurts, dont do it. try laterals, or cable laterals. you can attempt to strengthen the suprispinatus with an external rotation exercise prior to training shoulders, and chest. either with a DB or cable, place your elbow on a bench or preacher pad so the delts dont take over.
