I am having freeze shoulder in morning and severe pain while movement, specially when movement is rapid OR i try to take my hands UP or back. And its getting worse day by day. It started with gym training.
I consulted doctor twice and he gave me etodolac 400 , gabapin 100 with multivitamin saying its not artheritis but lagament tissue damage only. I am still confused of if it is artheritis OR ligament tissue damage, as i have family history of artheritis and dibetes type 2. And i already have diabetes.
Now i am not able to sleep properly as my pain is getting worse day by day.
Any suggestions and relevant doctors referral would help.

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that causes pain and stiffness in the shoulder joint. It occurs when the tissue that surrounds the shoulder joint becomes thick, tight, and inflamed, making it difficult to move the shoulder. The condition usually affects people between the ages of 40 and 60 and is more common in women than men.
The cause of frozen shoulder is not fully understood, but it can develop after a shoulder injury, surgery, or prolonged immobility of the shoulder. It is also more common in people with certain health conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, and heart disease. In some cases, frozen shoulder can develop without any apparent cause.
In your case, since you have a family history of arthritis and diabetes type 2, it is important to rule out any underlying conditions that may be contributing to your symptoms. Your doctor has prescribed etodolac and gabapin, which are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and can help reduce pain and inflammation. Multivitamins can help improve overall health and may be recommended to help with the healing process.
In addition to medication, your doctor may also recommend physical therapy to help improve range of motion and flexibility in the shoulder joint. They may also recommend exercises to strengthen the muscles surrounding the shoulder joint to help improve function.
If your symptoms persist or worsen, it may be necessary to see a specialist such as an orthopedic surgeon or a rheumatologist. They can evaluate your symptoms and perform further tests to determine the underlying cause and provide appropriate treatment.
It is also important to manage any underlying health conditions that may be contributing to your symptoms. With proper treatment and care, most people with frozen shoulder can regain full shoulder function.
