pain limits your shoulder movement and increases stiffness. In fact,

Physical Therapy
This is one of the most common 
treatments for a frozen shoulder. 
The objective of physical therapy is to 
stretch your shoulder joint and improve 
the lost range of motion.

Medications
Certainly, a frozen shoulder is extremely 
painful. Well, in order to reduce the joint 
inflammation and treat the pain, a doctor 
recommends medications such as 
ibuprofen, naproxen sodium, or aspirin. 
Sometimes a steroid injection is also 
recommended by doctors.

Home Care
Well, home care is very important to treat any shoulder 
injury. Cold compression is the best technique that you can 
do to minimize the pain of your shoulder. 
Apart from this, you can ask for some exercises from your 
physical therapist. Most of the patients improve their 
condition without any shoulder surgery.

Surgery
If physical therapy and home remedies 
don’t improve your condition, then 
shoulder surgery is the only option. 
Today, doctors recommend arthroscopic 
surgery. This surgery does not require 
much time to recover.
