Stand in front of a mirror with your arms relaxed by your sides and your elbows straight. Slowly lift the affected arm forward (in front of you) as high as possible, trying to bring it close to your ear. Lower the arm, then slowly lift it out to the side, again trying to bring it close to your ear. Compare both shoulders. If you are able to lift your arm close to your ear in both directions without significant pain or stiffness, a frozen shoulder is less likely. If you are unable to lift your arm close to your ear because of pain and marked stiffness, especially in both directions, it may suggest a frozen shoulder. However, similar symptoms can also occur with rotator cuff injuries, shoulder impingement, arthritis, or other shoulder conditions.

A frozen shoulder cannot be confirmed based only on symptoms, especially if the pain has been present for just 2 weeks. It is important to assess your shoulder movements, pain pattern, and rule out conditions such as rotator cuff injury, bursitis, or cervical spine-related pain. With an accurate diagnosis, most shoulder conditions improve well with the right physiotherapy.

You need proper assessment to confirm weather it's a frozen shoulder not. In frozen shoulder you can't lift your hand above 90° and can't fold you hand back. There will be severe pain. Apply hot pack twice a day, consult nearby physiotherapist and take proper treatment, it may take upto 3 weeks or more depending on your condition.
