frozen shoulder

A

Phases
-pain and freezing- up to 1 yr. active and passive abduc reduced to under 90, ext rot under 30.
-frozen- pain settles but stiff. 6-12 mnth.
-thawing- regain ROM. 1-3 yr.
can be assoc with cervical spondylosis, DM, thyr dis.
Tx- physio init bad but LT good, NSAID, CS injec, surgic rel. MUA. Stretch exercises. Distension arthrogram saline injec under press, leave, interval rel (esp coracohumeral lig) foll by physio.
ext rot restric over 50% means frozen shoulder v likely. Global ROM restric and ant pain.
