Description
Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is a disorder characterized by pain and loss of motion or stiffness in the shoulder. It affects about two percent of the general population. It is more common in women between the ages of 40 years to 70 years old. The causes of frozen shoulder are not fully understood. The process involves thickening and contracture of the capsule surrounding the shoulder joint. A doctor can diagnose frozen shoulder based on the history of the patient's symptoms and physical examination. X-rays or MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) studies are sometimes used to rule out other causes of shoulder stiffness and pain, such as rotator cuff tear.
weeeeeeeeeeee... the doc referred me to a specialist at mmi... not sure where but i heard is at NUS there... the medic was suppose to call me by the end of today to let me know of the appointment date and time... but apparently either he forgot or he didnt bother to let me know... so now im at a loss... haiz...
