Adhesive capsulitis, also known as frozen shoulder, frozen shoulder, and frozen shoulder (Frozen Shoulder), is commonly known as fifty shoulders because it usually occurs between the ages of forty and sixty-five [1]. Pain and disabling conditions in the shoulder area, as the shoulder joint capsule and the connective tissue surrounding the shoulder joint become inflamed and stiff, limiting range of motion and causing chronic pain. The pain is mostly persistent and gets worse at night or when it’s cold. Certain movements or collisions can cause severe pain and muscle spasms. The cause of this disease is not clear. It may be caused by shoulder injury or trauma, or it may be related to autoimmunity.
Risk factors for this disease are tonic seizures, diabetes, stroke, accidents, lung disease, connective tissue disease, thyroid disease, and cardiovascular disease. Treatment procedures can be painful and strenuous and include physical therapy, occupational therapy, massage therapy, shoulder capsulectomy, or surgery. Physicians may also make adjustments to patients under anesthesia by opening up adhesive and granulation tissue in the joints and restoring a certain degree of mobility. Alternative treatment modalities include the Trigenics OAT procedure, ART, and OTZ. The effect varies according to the type and severity of adhesive capsulitis. Pain and inflammation can be managed with analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
People with adhesive capsulitis have severe pain, and because of the chronic pain, the pain is exacerbated when lying still. And the movement and posture will be restricted, and there will be sleep deprived. This symptom can lead to depression, head and neck problems, and weight loss due to prolonged lack of deep sleep. People with adhesive capsulitis are also unable to concentrate, work, or perform daily activities for long periods of time. This symptom is self-limiting and generally resolves gradually over time without surgical treatment. Most people can return to 90% of their original shoulder motion after a period of time.
