Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis): Inflamed, thickened shoulder joint tissue causing severe stiffness and pain.
Freezing (2–9 mos): Pain increases, movement starts locking up.
Frozen (4–12 mos): Stiffness peaks; less sharp pain, high immobility.
Thawing (6–24 mos): Movement slowly returns.
Primary Risks: Diabetes, age 40–60, or prolonged arm immobility (e.g., post-surgery/injury).
Treatment: Physical therapy, stretching, pain relievers, and steroid injections.
