  • Can you help with frozen shoulder?

    Frozen shoulder or "adhesive capsulitis" is a self-limiting disease that affects range of motion about the shoulder. Its most common in women aged 40-60 and has worse outcomes in people with diabetes or thyroid disease. Treatment is geared at gaining back normal range of motion. The mainstay of this is aggressive stretching with physical therapy however intra-articular injections (cortisone, PRP) have been showed to expedite the process. READ MORE

  • What exercises get rid of rounded shoulders?

    Protracted or "rounded shoulders" are quite common. People frequently work at a computer and have poor posture. To get rid of this, exercises focusing on your upper back muscles and improving your posture is critical. READ MORE

  • Is it better to rest or exercise a frozen shoulder?

    Stretching is critical for a frozen shoulder. This disease is self-limiting meaning it normally gets better on its own however this can take up to 12-24 months. Not moving the shoulder leads to increased stiffness. It is important to try and maintain range of motion so your shoulder does not get more stiff. READ MORE

  • Should I see a doctor for shoulder joint pain?

    It really depends how long this has been going on. I typically tell patients that if the pain continues for greater than 2 weeks, its best to get evaluated. Most of the remedies are simple and can help you sleep and function better. READ MORE

  • Can you fix the shoulder impingement?

    Yes. Lots of times shoulder impingement is secondary to posture and weak shoulder stabilizing muscles. Sometimes the bone above the humerus (acromion) is pointed down and requires an arthroscopic surgery to level this off. READ MORE
