Frozen shoulder

Frozen shoulder is a condition that causes restriction of motion in the shoulder joint and can be intensely painful. It is one of the commonest causes of shoulder pain and affects women more than men. In addition, diabetics have more shoulder pain and frozen shoulder complaints than the rest of the population.

Frozen shoulder can occur after an injury or prolonged immobilization of the shoulder, such as after surgery or an arm fracture. Being diabetic may cause the immune system to attack the healthy parts of the body, in this case the capsule and connective tissue of the shoulder. Even other health conditions — such as heart disease and lung disease — may increase the risk of developing frozen shoulder.
