Frequently asked questions
How long does frozen shoulder last?
Frozen shoulder moves through stages that can last from several months to a couple of years. Physical therapy helps ease pain and regain motion along the way.
When should I see a doctor?
See a doctor promptly if you cannot lift your arm after a fall or injury, if the shoulder looks deformed, or if shoulder pain comes with chest pain or shortness of breath, which needs emergency care.
