What is the common age for frozen shoulder

[CuriousCat]

I'm hoping someone can help me with my question about frozen shoulder. I'm wondering what the common age is for someone to experience the condition. I've heard it's more common for people over 40, but I'm not sure if that's true for everyone. Has anyone here had experience with this condition or know someone who has? I'd really appreciate any advice or information you can share about this topic.

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a common shoulder condition that causes pain and stiffness in the shoulder joint. It is estimated to affect up to 20% of the population at some point in their lives. It is most common in people between the ages of 40 and 60, though it can occur in younger and older individuals as well.

Causes of Frozen Shoulder

The exact cause of frozen shoulder is not known, however there are some factors that may increase the risk of developing the condition. These include age, diabetes, shoulder injury or surgery, and a prolonged period of immobility of the shoulder joint.

Symptoms of Frozen Shoulder

The main symptom of frozen shoulder is pain in the shoulder joint, which can be sharp or dull. The pain may be worse at night and when reaching up or out with the arm. Other symptoms include stiffness, limited range of motion, and a decrease in strength in the affected arm.

Diagnosis of Frozen Shoulder

Frozen shoulder is typically diagnosed through a physical exam and imaging tests such as an X-ray or MRI. The doctor will look for signs of joint damage, inflammation, and scar tissue.

Treatment of Frozen Shoulder

Treatment for frozen shoulder may include physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, steroid injections, and, in some cases, surgery. The goal of treatment is to reduce pain and restore range of motion and strength in the shoulder.

The common age for frozen shoulder is typically between 40 and 70 years old. However, it can affect people of all ages. It is more common in women and in people who have diabetes, thyroid disease, cardiovascular disease, or a stroke.

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, occurs when the tissue surrounding the shoulder joint becomes painfully tight and stiff. Symptoms include severe pain, decreased shoulder range of motion, and difficulty with everyday activities such as lifting your arm overhead or reaching behind your back.

Treatment for frozen shoulder typically begins with physical therapy, which may include exercises to help restore range of motion, stretching, and massage. If physical therapy does not help, then your doctor may recommend a corticosteroid injection or surgery to help reduce the pain and stiffness.

Your doctor may also recommend anti-inflammatory medications and lifestyle changes such as avoiding activities that cause pain. It is important to follow the treatment plan and to be patient, as it can take several months for the pain and stiffness to improve.

The average age for a frozen shoulder to develop is between 40 and 60 years old. However, it can happen at any age due to injury or other medical conditions. The condition is more common in women than men, and is also more likely to occur in people with diabetes, hypothyroidism, and a history of shoulder injury or surgery. If you have any of these conditions, you should be especially aware of the symptoms of frozen shoulder and contact your doctor if you experience any of them.
