It occurs when the capsule of connective tissue surrounding the shoulder joint thickens and tightens, making it difficult for the shoulder to move freely. How Does Frozen Shoulder Occur? While anyone can develop a frozen shoulder, certain factors increase the likelihood of it happening. It's like the joint has been hibernating for too long and doesn't want to come out of its shell. Health Conditions : Conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, or thyroid problems can increase the risk of developing frozen shoulder.
Lack of Movement : If you have a lack of shoulder movement for any reasonβsuch as prolonged immobility due to illness or injuryβyour shoulder capsule might stiffen. You might also feel like the pain is increasing over time and limiting your range of motion.
