I am going through my 2nd fs. Back in late 2015 I started to get symptoms, but decided just to let things happen naturally. I just went with advice from the Internet. 10 months later & a lot of pain, it left me with no lasting effect.
Fast forward to Aug 2020, and one day I got this pain in my other arm that I knew all too well & knew it was happening again đ˘. It was much worse this time. I went to the doctors & was sent for physio. The physio told me it was tendonitis & we started work on it.
Feb 15th 2021 - the arm was getting better, but started to get stiff again & terrible discomfort. My physio said I had developed fs, and had to put excerises on hold . I have a little movement in my arm now but pain & cramping still there. I know there will be a day when all will be well, but for the moment I shall just soldier on.
Hello, I am also in the third phase and I want to reassure you that there is really hope and in the third phase of a frozen shoulder the pain decreases and the mobility gradually increases. I can finally sleep in a slightly more varied position, also dress more normally and perform my usual daily activities better. one of my hands was so bad that I couldn't even work with a computer and the mouse was in terrible pain. I even learned to work with the other hand so that I could do at least some of the necessary activities on a computer. what I would like to share and I think it is important that in order to recover faster. I reached the third phase in seven months which I think is a good result as really during these seven months the pain is terribly unpleasant. I started going to physiotherapy in the second month where they showed me the right exercises and applied different machines that could possibly improve the situation. to tell you the truth i would personally recommend you not to use any machines low electroimpuls treatment and so on. what really helped me and I didn't have any side effects from it is gymnastics. it should be done gradually with a very small amplitude of increase but me very regularly even for a short time but regularly. all I would like various tonic supplements but I can't say if they have any effect even more that I don't drink them regularly. which for me was really key to the recovery and I highly recommend it is a mineral bath. I do not know if you have knowledge in this area but this is a water therapy with mineral water in a mineral pool. I visited a special place where I did gymnastics in the water of the mineral pool which is designed specifically for arthritic and rheumatic and traumatic diseases of the joints, muscles and tendons. if you do not have the opportunity to visit mineral therapy then I would advise you to at least try to do water gymnastics in a pool or at sea. this gymnastics cannot be compared at all in comfort with dry gymnastics. try and you will understand me. in water gymnastics the exercises are made much easier with a much better range and there is no such great pain that there is in dry gymnastics in an air environment with much stronger gravity. this is what i wanted to share them with and it is extremely important. postscript: I was also offered different types of injections and surgery, but despite the great pain I had, I gave up these options and endured this pain because I read various reviews in which it is clear that these things also have side effects and is not clear whether they will help. go persistent in your gymnastics and you will get the desired result faster. wish you health and success and may God be with you!
My left should is freezing up, I dealt with my right one doing this almost 4 years ago. uuugghh. The first time, I went through months of painstaking physical therapy before and after finally having a manipulation surgery. I really don't think I have the energy for all that again. I never took steroids, though the Dr's tried to give me some, I'm a type 1 diabetic, so steroids read havoc on my blood sugar. I'm thinking this time, since I know more about what's going on, I may just wait it out. I'm 53 and this is the most painful thing I have ever had happen, like you said, people just don't understand. I'm wondering what we all have in common and why is this happening to us?? I know there is a light at the end of this extremely long tunnel!!
