Summary

Adhesive capsulitis refers to the occurrence of pain and a gradual decline in the range of motion (ROM) due to slow increases in synovial hypertrophy and the adhesion between the synovial membrane and articular surface. It leads to the loss of flexibility and difficulties with the activities of daily living (ADLs) due to chronic inflammation accompanied by intra-articular fibrosis. The real cause of this syndrome is unknown but there are some predisposing factors involved such as synovial cell hyperplasia, fibrosis of the capsule due to cytokines or other inflammatory factors. In the current study investigator will compare the effects of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) along with conventional therapy to treat the adhesive capsulitis.
