What is a Frozen Shoulder?
A frozen shoulder, also called adhesive capsulitis, is a condition where your shoulder movement is limited. Often, this restriction in movement occurs through three phases.
The first stage, the freezing stage, is when the shoulder first becomes painful and stiff. Frequently, this happens from an injury, whether it is minor or not. As time goes on, your ability to move your shoulder becomes less and less. The pain may also become worse at night or when you lie on your affected shoulder. This may happen gradually over many months or over only about six weeks.
