Can patients with frozen shoulder exercise?

Periarthritis of the shoulder is a common joint disease. Sometimes, if it is severe, the pain caused is unbearable for patients and will affect their life and work. Therefore, we must pay attention to the correct treatment and solution. We can also exercise in daily life, such as doing more shoulder joint movements or bending over and drawing circles.

1. Patients should do more shoulder exercises, especially large-scale exercises for 10 minutes each time, which is very beneficial for preventing adhesion of the shoulder joint and stiffness and contracture of the shoulder soft tissue. For patients with mild periarthritis of the shoulder, it can be cured by simply persisting in functional exercises. Wang Xiaofeng, Massage Department, Zhengzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital

2. Bend over and draw circles: The patient with shoulder rotation bends over and lets his arms hang down, swings the affected arm, and makes circular movements from inside to outside or from outside to inside with the shoulder as the center, using the swing of the arm to drive the movement of the shoulder joint.

3. Extension squat: The patient stands with his back to the table, puts his hands behind the table, and repeatedly squats to strengthen the extension activity of the shoulder joint.

4. Wall climbing: The patient stands facing the wall, raises his hands, holds on to the wall, and strives to climb up, trying to climb higher than the previous day.

5: Pendulum exercise. Flex the hip 90 degrees, hold the support with the healthy hand to stabilize the body, hold the dumbbell with the affected hand, and use the load that is appropriate for the individual's muscle strength to perform a one-way hammer swing outward, inward, forward, and backward, and gradually move in a clockwise circle; change direction and move counterclockwise, 20 times as a set, and do 2 to 3 sets.

6: Table-wiping action (crawling action), sit on the affected side against a long table, hold the cloth in the affected hand and imitate the table-wiping action. The directions are front and back, left and right. It is best not to cause pain. Do 2 to 3 sets of 20 times.
