Recognise the Signs

Symptoms of Frozen Shoulder

These warning signs indicate your shoulder capsule may be involved. The earlier you seek physiotherapy, the faster and more complete your recovery will be don't wait until symptoms become severe.

Persistent Night Pain

Shoulder pain that intensifies at rest especially when lying on the affected side severely disrupting sleep quality.

Difficulty Lifting the Arm

Progressive inability to raise the arm first losing overhead reach, then side elevation, then basic forward movement.

Severe Stiffness

The shoulder feels "locked" particularly when trying to rotate the arm outward or reach behind the back.

Pain During Daily Activities

Simple tasks dressing, combing hair, reaching or a shelf, or putting on a seatbelt become painful and frustrating.

Progressive Movement Loss

Range of motion gradually worsens over weeks and months if untreated each month bringing more restriction than the last.

Aching at Rest

A constant deep ache in the shoulder and upper arm present even when the arm is completely still indicating active capsule inflammation.

Root Causes

What Causes Frozen Shoulder?

Frozen shoulder can arise from a range of underlying factors. Identifying your specific trigger is essential for designing the most effective rehabilitation programme.

Get Diagnosed

Prolonged Immobility

After fracture, surgery, or injury the shoulder capsule contracts when movement is restricted for extended periods.

Thyroid Disorders

Both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are associated with higher rates of adhesive capsulitis development.

Rotator Cuff Injuries

Unresolved rotator cuff tears or impingement can trigger secondary capsular inflammation and progressive stiffness.

Diabetes

Strongly associated elevated blood sugar alters collagen metabolism, increasing capsular thickening and inflammation risk.

Poor Posture

Rounded shoulder posture compresses the joint space and alters capsule mechanics a common precursor to frozen shoulder.

Age (40/60 Years)

Most commonly occurs between 40 and 60 when collagen quality decreases and the capsule becomes more susceptible to inflammation.

Women are more commonly affected than men particularly in the perimenopausal age group (45/60 years). Hormonal changes during this period are believed to increase capsular vulnerability.

Night pain disrupting your sleep consistently

Range of motion progressively decreasing week by week

Recent shoulder injury, fracture, or surgery

Difficulty with dressing, reaching, or overhead activities
