There is no such thing as “medication or acupuncture is better for frozen shoulder”, both medication and acupuncture are treatments for frozen shoulder, and both are effective in relieving pain symptoms. Frozen shoulder is recommended to be treated scientifically and reasonably by a specialist physician who will formulate an individualized treatment plan based on the development of the disease and the patient’s physical condition. “Frozen shoulder, or periarthritis of the shoulder joint, belongs to the category of “shoulder paralysis” in traditional Chinese medicine, and its prescription varies according to the type of evidence. Wind-cold and damp obstruction type can be taken internally as Duo Wu Zhaosheng Tang or Three Paralysis Tang, etc.; stagnation type can be treated by adding or subtracting from Body Pain and Blood Stasis Tang; and qi and blood deficiency type can be treated by adding or subtracting from Angelica and Chicken Blood Vine Tang. Acupuncture and moxibustion treatment for shoulder paralysis has the effect of relaxing the tendons and collaterals and regulating qi and blood, and it can be taken at the points of shoulder dao, shoulder solo, arm forelimbs, giant bone and quchi, and it can be taken at the points of “pain as acupoints” for needling and it can be also combined with moxibustion for treatment. Shoulder paralysis patients should combine their own conditions, under the guidance of professional physicians to choose a suitable treatment program. Medications should be taken under the guidance of a physician, and should not be taken on their own. Acupuncture treatment must be operated by a physician, moxibustion can be operated under the guidance of a physician to avoid adverse effects on the body.
