WHAT IS FROZEN SHOULDER ?
Frozen shoulder also called adhesive
capsulitis. - Its a painful condition in which
the movement of the shoulder becomes
limited . - Frozen shoulder occurs when the
strong connective tissue surrounding the shoulder
joint, called the shoulder joint capsule become
thick, stiff, and inflamed. - The joint capsule
contains the ligaments that attach the top of the
humeral head to the shoulder socket firmly
holding the joint in place. - frozen shoulder
may take two to nine months to develop. Although
the pain may slowly improve, stiffness continues,
and range of motion remains limited.

WHAT ARE THE FACTORS THAT INCREASE THE CHANCES
OF FROZEN SHOULDER ?

  years old.

HOW FROZEN SHOULDER TAKES PLACE

• The process usually begins with an injury or
  inflammation of the soft tissues, typically due
  to overuse injuries such as bursitis or
  tendinitis of the rotator cuff. Inflammation
  causes pain that is worse with movement and
  limits the shoulder's range of motion.
• When the shoulder becomes immobilized in this
  way, the connective tissue surrounding the joint
  the joint capsule thickens and contracts,
  losing its normal capacity to stretch.
• The humerus has less space to move in, and the
  joint may lose its lubricating synovial fluid. In
  advanced cases, bands of scar tissue form between
  the joint capsule and the head of the hummers.

SYMPTOMS

  pain and stiffness that make it difficult or
  impossible to move it.

  feel a dull or achy pain in one shoulder. You

  that wrap around the top of your arm.
• - You might feel the same sensation in your
  upper arm. Your pain could get worse at night,
  which can make it hard to sleep.
• There are mainly three stages of frozen
  shoulder.

• - You develop a pain (sometimes severe) in your
  shoulder any time you move it.
• It slowly gets worse over time and may hurt more
  at night.

  shoulder.

  gets worse.

DIAGNOSIS

• To diagnose frozen shoulder, your doctor will
  give you a physical exam. They'll check it to see
  how badly it hurts and how far it moves.
• During the active part of the exam, theyll
  let you move your shoulder on your own. During
  the passive portion, theyll move it for you,
  and note the differences.
• A physical exam is usually enough to diagnose
  frozen shoulder, but your doctor may also order
  imaging tests such as X-rays, ultrasound,
  or MRI to rule out other problems
  like arthritis or a torn rotator cuff that can
  also cause pain and limit how far it moves.

MANAGEMENT

1. Nerve stimulation A transcutaneous electrical
   nerve stimulation (TENS) unit delivers a tiny
   electrical current to key points on a path that a
   nerve follows. The current, delivered through
   electrodes taped to the skin, isn't painful or
   harmful. It might cause the release of molecules
   that curb pain (endorphins) or block fibers that
   carry pain.
