Frozen Shoulder [Disease]
Introduction: Frozen shoulder also called “adhesive capsulitis” is a medical situation that restricts movement in the shoulder joint, making it difficult to perform everyday activities. Wang et al. (2017) describe it as a debilitating condition. The condition was initially identified clinically by Duplay in 1872 and was referred to as "peri arthritis scapula-humeral (MOHAMED et al., 2022). In contrast to Duplay's early description, Codman, in 1934, proposed the term "frozen shoulder" to describe the condition's potential for developing shoulder stiffness and pain without external influence (Codman & PELTIER, 1990).“ The term "adhesive capsulitis" was coined by Dr. Richard Neviaser to describe the pathology in the glenohumeral capsule that causes a frozen shoulder or restricted shoulder movement (Makki et al., 2021). Frozen shoulder is a prevalent reason for shoulder joint pain in middle-aged and elderly individuals. While the exact cause of this condition is not yet fully understood, it is believed to affect females and the non-dominant hand more commonly (Nakandala, Nanayakkara, Wadugodapitiya, & Gawarammana, 2021).
