Need Help For Frozen Shoulder

@ladyduck do you know/remember exactly what caused your frozen shoulder, or was it a sudden onset?

@LadyDuck i know the incident that triggered mine. i had limited movement in my right arm for a week, i think. i didn't go to any doctor or have hilot (traditional massages) then it went away. it was 6 months later when i started noticing pain when i extend or stretch my arm fully.

@hereandthere Yes, I remember very well. While I was lifting a bag in the garden I feel a little pain in my shoulder. The day after I was unable to extend my arm completely, I could not reach the overhead cabinets. I confess that I waited at least 10 days before going to my doctor hoping that the problem auto-fixed. I finally had to go and the Doctor said I had injured a tendon, he wanted to perform surgery, I refused, so I went to the physiotherapist and now I can move my shoulder and arm again.

@amnabas did physical therapy work for your sister-in-law? is her shoulder back to normal now?

@butchcass4 yes we have a family history of arthritis, which reminds me, i notice i get stiff fingers sometimes, so more reason to see the doctor soon

@cahaya1983 when i need to reach for something above, behind, left or right, that's when i'm reminded that i can't stretch my right arm to the fullest and it would hurt.

@wetnosedogs we do have a family history of arthritis, but i hope not - yet.
