Symptoms and treatment of frozen shoulder

There are two main symptoms of frozen shoulder: first, shoulder pain, which can be mild or severe, and in severe cases, it can affect sleep and require painkillers to relieve. The second is the limitation of shoulder joint movement, which is manifested by the inability to lift the shoulder completely, and the inability to reach back and touch the back, which affects daily life, such as the inability to wash the face, comb the hair, take a bath, put on clothes, etc. Although there are many treatment methods for frozen shoulder, there are three main treatment methods that are more commonly used and have better results: First, massage and tui-na treatment, which can activate blood stasis, relieve tendons and pain, and also improve the function of shoulder joint activities. The second is local closure and small needle knife treatment, which injects anti-inflammatory drugs directly into the local inflammation area to play the role of anti-inflammation and pain relief, which is more effective. Thirdly, functional exercise of shoulder joint activity can improve the limited function of shoulder joint activity through functional exercise of shoulder joint activity. Frozen shoulder is a chronic disease and treatment is a slow process. If treated actively, it can generally heal in 1-3 months, while slow cases take half a year or even more than a year to recover.
