Usually developing slowly, it moves through three phases: the freezing, the frozen, and the melting stages. Although the precise origin of frozen shoulders is unknown, it usually follows a period of shoulder immobility brought on by disease, surgery, or accident. Among women especially, risk factors include diabetes, thyroid problems, and being over forty years of age. Simple tasks like reaching overhead, getting dressed, or combing hair grow challenging over time.

Usually based on a physical examination and medical history, diagnosis is made occasionally in line with imaging studies. Usually using physical therapy, anti-inflammatory drugs, and corticosteroid injections, the treatment centres on pain reduction and regaining mobility. Under severe or persistent conditions, joint manipulation under anaesthesia or surgical intervention could be required.
Early intervention and regular therapy can greatly increase outcomes, hence lowering recovery time and improving shoulder function.
