❄️ Is your shoulder pain getting worse, and is it becoming difficult to lift your arm? It could be Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis).
Frozen Shoulder is a common orthopedic condition that causes pain, stiffness, and reduced shoulder movement. It develops gradually and can make everyday activities like combing your hair, reaching overhead, wearing a shirt, or sleeping comfortably extremely difficult.
🚨 Common Symptoms:
✔️ Shoulder pain (especially at night)
✔️ Gradually increasing stiffness
✔️ Difficulty lifting or rotating the arm
✔️ Pain while dressing or reaching behind your back
✔️ Limited range of shoulder movement
👥 Who is at Higher Risk?
🔹 People aged 40–60 years
🔹 Individuals with diabetes
🔹 Those recovering from a shoulder injury or surgery
🔹 People who have kept their shoulder immobilized for a long time
🔹 Patients with thyroid disorders
💡 The good news: Most cases improve with early diagnosis, physiotherapy, stretching exercises, medications, and other non-surgical treatments. Delaying treatment can prolong recovery and increase stiffness.
