Frozen shoulder is a condition most often characterized by severe shoulder pain and functional restriction of the shoulder motion in multiple directions. About 4% of the general population will develop a frozen shoulder, with numbers rising to 59% in patients with diabetes mellitus. It curiously only develops between the age of 40 and 60 years, affects more women than men and seems to be more common in patients with sedentary jobs. Disease duration varies between 1 and 3 years and consequently has a large impact on the health and economic well-being of individuals and society.
Frozen Shoulder: Present and Future provides readers with insight into one of the most mysterious diseases of the human body. One day you’re perfectly fine, and the next day you’re hit by unbearable shoulder pain, which sets in motion many sleepless nights: welcome to the mysterious world of frozen shoulder.
