Frozen Shoulder - We get an increasing amount of enquiries from ladies who are having shoulder problems and mobility in the shoulder area is difficult, therefore finding a suitable fitting and comfortable bra is a real issue.
One of the most common heard complaints is trying to fasten a bra at the back is nigh on impossible and having to ask for assistance is not only embarrassing, it is downright impossible if you live on your own!
The good news is that it appears that more and more of you are having treatment to ease the pain and in some cases having surgery to correct the problem – in some cases replacement shoulder surgery.
Treatment for frozen shoulder varies depending on the stage of the condition, and the severity of pain and stiffness. The aim of treatment is to keep your joint as mobile and pain free as possible while your shoulder heals. In many cases, your GP may refer you for specialist treatment from a physiotherapist, who can help you maintain movement and flexibility in your shoulder through a number of techniques.
There is a very useful factsheet available from NHS Direct please see below.
