Include Frozen Shoulder information on your My EmpowHER page
Frozen shoulder is a condition that results in a loss of movement and pain at the shoulder joint.
In frozen shoulder:
* Active range of motion is lost.—This means you cannot move your shoulder well.
* Passive range of motion is lost.—This means another person trying to move your arm at the shoulder joint will find it stiff and difficult to move.
Frozen shoulder gets worse over time. However, after a period of time, the shoulder may improve spontaneously. This improvement in mobility is called thawing.
