Frozen shoulder means global restriction of shoulder joint movement. It has three stages- the freezing stage where joint movement is painful and restricted, the frozen stage where pain improves but movement restriction persists and the thawing stage where the pain is minimal or absent and movement restriction improves. It is generally a self-limiting condition, but recovery time varies from 2-3 years. Physical therapy is the mainstay of treatment. If pain and restriction of movement hamper day-to-day activity and the condition does not improve with physiotherapy, then steroid injection inside the joint or manipulation under anaesthesia or arthroscopic release of adhesions is performed.
