Frozen Shoulder Treatment in Lahore

Frozen shoulder is the most common disorder in which your shoulder’s range of motion becomes restricted and painful. Adhesive capsulitis is another term used for frozen shoulder. Frozen shoulder is mainly caused by thickening, inflammation and stiffening of the shoulder joint capsule (which is the strong connective tissue that envelops the shoulder joint).

The term “frozen” shoulder indicates the perception that you make use of your shoulder less as it becomes gradually painful. A lack of use causes your shoulder capsule to stiffen and become tough to use. Your shoulder consequently feels frozen.
