Abstract

Abstract: Periarthritis shoulder (Frozen shoulder) is a painful, often prolonged condition, usually seen in middle aged person in fourth and fifth decades of life that requires careful clinical diagnosis and management. Patients usually recover, but they may never regain their full range of movement. Males are affected 163 times as commonly as female. Persons who are involved in sedentary work are more prone to develop problem of periarthritis shoulder. This study aim to evaluate the methods of conservative treatment in periarthritis shoulder. A total 75 Patients were considered. Among total sixteen patients under analgesics showed moderate (25%), poor (75%) and good (0%) response to treatment. 11.11% on treatment with hydrocortisone plus showed good response, while 22.22% showed moderate and 66.67% showed a poor response. Intra-articular hydrocortisone along with physiotherapy and analgesics can be claimed as the best line of treatment as it is safe, more effective with relatively non or every rare complication.
