Stages of Frozen Shoulder
01
Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, progresses through three stages:
In this stage, shoulder pain gradually increases, and the range of motion begins to diminish. It may be accompanied by inflammation and stiffness.
During this stage, shoulder pain may stabilize or decrease, but stiffness and restricted mobility become more pronounced. Simple movements, such as lifting the arm or reaching behind the back, become challenging.
In the final stage, the shoulder gradually regains mobility and function. Pain subsides, and the range of motion improves, allowing for a return to normal activities.

Appointment
Diagnosing frozen shoulder usually involves a combination of medical history evaluation, physical examination, and imaging tests. The process may include
1. Medical History Assessment
Your healthcare provider will discuss your symptoms, medical history, and any previous injuries or conditions that may have contributed to the development of frozen shoulder.
2. Physical Examination
The healthcare professional will evaluate your shoulder's range of motion, strength, and stability, assessing for signs of restricted mobility and pain.
3. Imaging Tests
X-rays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or ultrasound may be used to rule out other conditions and assess the condition of the shoulder joint and surrounding tissues.
