2. Accumulation of lactic acid: some people lack physical exercise for a long time or suddenly have muscle pain after strenuous exercise, too much accumulation of lactic acid, which cannot be metabolized normally through blood circulation, will accumulate in the body, and the symptoms of muscle pain will appear.
3. Frozen shoulder: aseptic inflammation of the soft tissues around the shoulder joint, adhesion and stiffness around the shoulder joint, resulting in pain around the shoulder joint and limitation of activities, especially when lifting and pulling heavy objects, the pain is obvious.
