The capsule of a shoulder joint includes the ligaments that attach the shoulder bones to each other. When inflammation occurs within the capsule, there is less ability for the shoulder bones to freely move within the joint. |
Many patients suffer from "frozen shoulder" which physicians refer to as adhesive capsulitis, or on occasion, bursitis or tendonitis. This is a rather unusual problem that occurs in the shoulder and results in stiffness, loss of motion and often substantial pain. |
The causes of a frozen shoulder are unknown. However, it is well known that it does not occur in any other joint in the body. Although the process is often self limited, the problem of a frozen shoulder occurs in 3 phases. Each phase is approximately 4 months in length. Initially, a "freezing phase" occurs. This is followed by a "frozen phase" and is completed by a "thawing phase". The entire time frame of a frozen shoulder may last as long as a year. While it is extremely rare for this problem to last longer than a year, it may last as long as 3 years, causing stiffness and discomfort for that period of time. Fortunately, it is very rare for the disorder to recur. Surprisingly, the non dominant shoulder is affected more than the dominant one. This disorder usually occurs between the ages of 40 and 60 and 70% of the cases occur in women. It is not normally associated with calcium deposits or rotator cuff injuries, and often x-rays are completely normal. |
Fortunately, a frozen shoulder is not often associated with arthritis or malignancies. However, there may be some association with thyroid disease, diabetes and other diseases. A thorough work-up for any disorder may be necessary if a frozen shoulder occurs. |
Many times patients will describe their shoulder as becoming increasingly stiff and painful over a period of time. This often occurs in middle aged women and may be related to either a minor injury, some form of stress, or bed rest following illness. Initially pain may occur with activities, as well as at rest. This often prevents sleep or may cause considerable pain during sleep with difficulty in finding a comfortable position in bed. Pain is progressive over a period of weeks and often results in loss of motion in the shoulder as the patient attempts to limit the pain by voluntarily decreasing the amount of motion in the shoulder. Many people are able to retain enough motion to allow for some function. However, the loss of motion with respect to raising and rotation of the arm often significantly limits the activities of daily living including such simple actions as placing the arm behind the back or tucking in a shirt. |
Other conditions can also cause restricted motion and a stiff joint--the diagnosis of a frozen shoulder includes specific symptoms. Often people experience trauma to the shoulder prior to the onset of the frozen shoulder, and sometimes there is no known cause for developing a frozen shoulder. |

SYMPTOMS |
|
|
Pain and stiffness are the two hallmark symptoms of this disease. In idiopathic frozen shoulder (i.e., frozen shoulder without an identifiable cause), pain is usually the first symptom, which makes the patient reluctant to move the arm. This lack of movement leads to an involuntary stiffness, which is the second phase of the disease. The third phase, thawing, is a gradual return of motion and function. |
