I have a...
'Frozen shoulder, medically referred to as adhesive capsulitis, is a disorder in which the shoulder capsule, the connective tissue surrounding the glenohumeral joint of the shoulder, becomes inflamed and stiff, greatly restricting motion and causing chronic pain.' Wiki P
'kin painful. I had one (the other arm) started 3 years ago and lasted 2 years! The first 6months are the most painful, any sudden movement causes severe pain, even a wave to a passing cyclist can start it off, so have learnt to nod. After 6 months the arm becomes so stiff that I will not be able to raise it above the horizontal (still be OK on the drops). Had this one for 4 months so far, so only 20 months to go!
Tried anti-inflammatory cream, heat cream, cold cream, clotted cream etc.
Anyone else had this? Got any ways of reducing the pain or length of time.?

You've got a protein deficiency. Meat's good for that."There's a shortage of perfect breasts in this world, t'would be a pity to damage yours."0

I don't get why people are always trying to force their cold shoulders on me

In all seriousness though, that sounds horrible. Hope you recover quickly.0 -

I had a frozen shoulder a few years ago and it really is a pain, especially at night. It's something that has to run it's course and is worse in some stages of its development than others.
I'd forgotten all about it though until I read this thread so there's no permanent problem.0
