What is Frozen Shoulder?
Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that causes pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion in the shoulder joint. It typically develops slowly and progresses through stages — from freezing (painful), to frozen (stiff), and finally to thawing (recovery).
Common Causes of Shoulder Pain
If you’re experiencing persistent shoulder discomfort, it might not just be frozen shoulder. Several orthopedic conditions can cause similar symptoms. Some of the most common include:
Shoulder Osteoarthritis
A degenerative joint disease that leads to the breakdown of cartilage, causing pain and limited mobility.
Calcific Tendonitis
Calcium deposits form in the tendons of the rotator cuff, leading to inflammation and severe shoulder pain, especially at night.
Bicep Tendonitis
Inflammation of the biceps tendon, often caused by repetitive overhead movements, can result in sharp shoulder pain and weakness.
Rotator Cuff Tear
A tear in one or more tendons of the rotator cuff — commonly seen in athletes and older adults — may cause a dull ache, especially when lifting or rotating the arm.
When Should You See a Specialist?
If shoulder pain is interfering with your daily activities or sleep, it’s time to consult an expert. Ignoring the early signs can lead to worsening stiffness and long-term damage. The earlier you seek medical attention, the better your chances of full recovery without surgical intervention.
