Understanding Frozen Shoulder

What is Frozen Shoulder? 

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition characterized by inflammation and thickening of the shoulder capsule, leading to stiffness and restricted movement.

Symptoms:

Common symptoms of frozen shoulder include pain and stiffness in the shoulder joint, particularly when attempting to lift the arm or perform overhead movements.

Diagnosis Process

Medical History and Physical Examination: During your initial consultation, Dr. Pranjel Pipara will conduct a thorough medical history review and physical examination to assess your symptoms and evaluate the range of motion in your shoulder.

Imaging Tests: In some cases, imaging tests such as X-rays, MRI, or ultrasound may be ordered to rule out other underlying conditions and confirm the diagnosis of frozen shoulder.

Treatment Options

Non-Surgical Treatment: Mild to moderate cases of frozen shoulder can often be managed with conservative measures such as rest, physical therapy, pain management techniques, and corticosteroid injections to reduce inflammation.

Surgical Intervention: In cases where conservative treatments fail to provide relief, or if the condition is severe, surgical intervention may be recommended. Dr. Pranjel Pipara is skilled in performing arthroscopic procedures to release the tight capsule and improve shoulder mobility.
