[Frozen Shoulder - a short review for the practice].

INTRODUCTION: The Frozen Shoulder is a frequently encountered pathology in clinical practice. This condition often coexists with various comorbidities and is characterized by severe pain and a significantly restricted motion of the affected shoulder. A limited passive external rotation with the arm in adduction, with no signs of any other pathology that could explain the finding, such as shoulder osteoarthritis or an undetected posterior dislocation, is pathognomonic. The course of the disease typically spans over one to two years and is usually self-limiting. In the vast majority of cases, this condition can be managed conservatively. Keywords: shoulder, shoulder stiffness, shoulder pain, conservative therapy.
