5.Who Gets It?
It’s most common if you’re in your 50s or 60s, and it’s rare for anyone under 40. Women get it more than men. And if you get frozen shoulder on one side of your body, you’re up to 30% more likely to get it on the other side.
6.Physical Exam
Your doctor will ask you about your symptoms, injuries, and medical history. Then they’ll check your shoulder. They’ll also move it to see where the pain and stiffness start. This is your passive range of motion. Then the doctor will ask you to move it yourself. That’s your active range of motion. At the limit, it may feel like your arm is stuck. If you have frozen shoulder, your passive and active range of motion will be less than normal.
