Frozen shoulder, medically known as adhesive capsulitis, affects millions of people worldwide. As it progresses, shoulder mobility becomes severely limited, leaving many in pain and struggling with their daily activities. But worry not, for this winter shall pass. Physiotherapy is your torchbearer, guiding you through the snowstorm of frozen shoulder and into a world of unhindered movement.
III. Understanding Frozen Shoulder
Causes of Frozen Shoulder
A variety of factors can contribute to frozen shoulder – from aging and hormonal changes to chronic diseases and immobility. Inflammation is the thief, taking away smooth joint function and leaving you with a stiff, aching shoulder. Though this condition can sometimes occur without any apparent cause, understanding the root of the problem is the first step towards relief.
Symptoms of Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder develops gradually, with symptoms worsening over time. The three classic stages include the freezing stage (painful and limited motion), the frozen stage (persistent stiffness), and the thawing stage (improved mobility). Identifying these symptoms is crucial for effective treatment and recovery.
