They explore what a frozen shoulder feels like, why it’s so painful, and how to recognise it, even when imaging often shows little to no signs. The conversation covers practical advice on treatments, including steroid injections, physiotherapy, hydrodistension, and surgical options for severe cases. Whether you're a doctor, physiotherapist, or someone dealing with shoulder pain, this discussion offers valuable insights into managing this challenging condition.
