FROZEN SHOULDER

What is Frozen Shoulder?

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition characterized by stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint. It typically develops gradually and can limit the range of motion in the shoulder, making daily activities challenging. The exact cause is often unknown, but it can occur after an injury or as a result of certain medical conditions.

Injuries: Injuries such as ligament tears, meniscus tears, or fractures can lead to knee pain.

Medical Conditions: Conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, or heart disease may increase the risk of developing frozen shoulder.

Prolonged Immobility: Extended periods of inactivity or immobility can contribute to the condition, especially after surgery or injury.

Inflammation: Chronic inflammation in the shoulder joint can lead to thickening and tightening of the shoulder capsule.

Pain: A dull or sharp pain in the shoulder that may worsen at night or during certain activities.

Stiffness: Limited range of motion, making it difficult to perform everyday tasks, such as reaching overhead or behind the back.

Decreased Mobility: Difficulty moving the shoulder in various directions due to stiffness and pain.

Gradual Onset: Symptoms typically develop slowly over time, often progressing through three stages: freezing, frozen, and thawing.

Frozen shoulder can significantly impact daily life and may require physical therapy or other treatments to restore mobility and alleviate pain.
