The treatment of acute frozen shoulder requires different treatment methods according to its different causes. The main treatments are braking, closed treatment, drug treatment and physical therapy.
The causes of acute frozen shoulder are generally acute shoulder injury or long-term cold shoulder, chronic strain and other reasons.
1. When the shoulder is acutely injured, a large amount of inflammatory factors will ooze out from the injured area, and in serious cases, adhesion will occur, resulting in limited shoulder joint movement and causing acute frozen shoulder. At this time, braking and local closed treatment, injection of glucocorticoids such as dexamethasone or local anesthetics such as lidocaine can be carried out to reduce the pain symptoms.
2. Cold: blood vessels will contract when stimulated by cold, resulting in slow blood circulation, the muscles can not discharge metabolites, which is easy to induce acute frozen shoulder. At this time, analgesic drugs can be taken, such as diclofenac sodium, tramadol hydrochloride capsules and so on.
3. Chronic strain injury: it is the most common cause, at this time, local hot compresses and physical therapy such as infrared rays, ultra-short wave, etc., to increase local blood flow, promote the discharge of inflammatory factors, and relieve pain.
The treatment of acute frozen shoulder requires different treatment methods according to its different causes. When suffering from acute frozen shoulder, patients should not blindly use drugs, and need to standardize the use of drugs under the guidance of doctors.
