Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 11
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus is associated with serious complications. There is a strong correlation between diabetes mellitus and musculoskeletal disorders especially frozen shoulder. There are degenerative changes and abnormalities of collagen repair due to poor circulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS 100 patients of frozen shoulder were selected. A detailed history regarding diabetes and shoulder symptoms was taken and every participant was subjected to investigations like fasting blood sugar along with post prandial blood sugar and HbA1c. RESULTS It was found that prevalence of diabetes mellitus among patients with frozen shoulder was 36%. Poor diabetic control was seen in most of the diabetic patients with frozen shoulder. CONCLUSION The results of this study concluded that all the patients of frozen shoulder should be investigated for diabetes mellitus. And a good glycaemic control should also be ensured along with other modalities of treatment of frozen shoulder.
