Re: [IP] Adhesive Capsulitis/ Frozen Shoulder- Yippee...!
I too went through this a few years back with frozen shoulder and also
frozen hip. I did not have any steroid shots but did go through physical
therapy. The therapy helped immensely along with anti inflammatory meds.
I did have therapy for several months but was well worth it. to this day I
make sure to stretch every day. Good luck Candy!
