Please advise
Posted , 10 users are following.
Hello all. I never thought I would find myself in a discussion/support group for a condition. I have always been so healthy. Well, bam, I was diagnosed with Frozen Shoulder. I just turned 52, never had health issues. My question to all is this...Do any of you have allot of pain after a hot water shower? So many advise on taking hot showers, however, ice works so much better for me. I have allot of pain after heat. This is a bizarre condition to say the least. Thanks for any thoughts.

Good luck with it, I had (successful) Arthoscopic Capuslar Release sugery two years ago. I'm sure you've done lots of research but in case you missed it: shoulderdoc.co.uk in my opinion gives a very good overview of the options.

I have been through phases lately where heat is bother me too. Ice works great too. This is a chanagable issue, that's for sure. Been feeling so tired this last week, I mean no energy. Guess the pain is just draining my body, duno. Hope you all feel well soon.

Nothing helps sometimes, though being on the forum is a good distraction!
Ice for the burning sort of pain. (Quitting nasty physio got rid of that type of pain for me too.)
Heat for the deep achiness and before any gentle stretches. I think there's a difference between dry heat and moist heat too. You might find dry heat better - like a bean bag or heating pad. But I found moist heat went deeper and was more effective - spritzing the heating pad.
Always do what works for you - seems to be the key with FS!
