Re: FROZEN SHOULDER

...........
An example of an exercise: stand near a doorway, reach your arm out at waist height to the door frame. Then let your fingers "walk" your hand upward gradually. Proceed until there's some pain, but not intense pain. Then reverse the movement downward. Repeat a few times.
When I had frozen shoulder, my sister sent me a get well card. It read, "Keep climbing the walls." Made me laugh. That's what I call the exercise of walking your fingers up the wall. It took about 18 months for me to get past the misery. And, it was pure misery. I finally ended up in surgery to undergo a manipulation procedure under anesthesia. They don't do that anymore, because of the likelihood of nerve damage, which luckily I never got in any meaningful way. My shoulder is fine now.
Now, it's just plain ol' NOT Dupuytren's disease.

Re: FROZEN SHOULDER
My shoulders are fine now as well. I think it took close to a year to get through it. It was the most painful thing I've ever experienced.
Hang in there!!

Re: FROZEN SHOULDER
With physical therapy my Dup's related frozen shoulder started showing improvement within about 1-2 months and was significantly better in about 3 months from start of treatment. 100% resolution took another 3 months or so.
