Summary

Steroid injections are widely utilized to reduce inflammation and fibrosis in patients with the frozen shoulder. In this study, investigators will compare intra-articular steroid injections with direct coracohumeral ligament steroid injection to conventional intra-articular steroid injection. Investigators will measure the primary outcome as shoulder function improvement and secondary outcomes as ROM, pain scale and stiffness of coracohumeral ligament under elastogram.
