Frozen shoulder is a medical condition in which the shoulder capsule becomes stiff and tight. Due to this reason, our shoulder becomes painful and the shoulder range of movement gets limited. Due to pain and restricted shoulder range of motion our quality of life deteriorates. In a frozen shoulder, sleep is disturbed due to pain and it becomes difficult for frozen shoulder patients to take the hand behind the head and back due to stiffness. The causes of the frozen shoulder are not clear. But risk factors are diabetes, immobilization due to some shoulder surgery, mastectomy, hand surgery, and shoulder injury, and some other medical conditions like Hypothyroidism, Hyperthyroidism, cardiac issues, and Parkinson's disease. 3 Stages of frozen shoulder are freezing, frozen & thawing. In the freezing stage, the main complaint is pain, while in the frozen stage the main complaint is stiffness.
Dr. Irfan Ahmed gave a very safe exercise routine for the freezing stage and the best stretches for the frozen stage. He also highlights Orthopedic treatment options like Manipulation under anesthesia and Arthroscopic shoulder surgery. APRC believes to deliver medical knowledge in a very simple and easy language for everyone. Stay home, stay safe.
