Shoulder pain

[Blueskies123]

I had two frozen shoulders in the past 12 years. Worse pain I’ve ever experienced. All (reputable) practitioners told me that time was the only treatment. One resolved after 14 months, and the 2nd one after 8 months. I’m now religious above doing gentle range of motion exercises daily. I don’t ever want to go through that again. Could barely dress myself, couldn’t reach for dishes on upper shelves, couldn’t sleep on either side, etc., etc.

I literally feel your pain, I get about two attacks per year each of the last 3 years. I tried steroid pills, injections, and massive amounts of NSAIDS and it keeps coming back. I am on my 6th attack. I am trying 3 Advil every 4 hours and gentle circular motions with my shoulder and arm.
Everyone thinks I am making this whole thing up because repeated attacks are very rare.

I don't think the repeated attacks are rare. You just get tired of the "rinse and repeat" drill and grit your teeth.
