Freezing, Frozen, Thawed: Frozen Shoulder

Frozen shoulder has been all over the news lately in relation to menopause. But no matter when a person experiences a frozen shoulder, it is painful, limiting, and can last many months, which really impacts our patients' quality of life.

Welcome to Hippo Education Presents: The Monthly Rounds, an open door to the expert-led learning behind Hippo's podcasts. This month, we're bringing you a conversation from our Urgent Care RAP podcast about frozen shoulder. UC RAP host and EM physician Dr. Kelly Heidepriem interviews Dr. Cindy Lin, a sports medicine and PM&R physician at the University of Washington. Together they talk about risk factors, making the diagnosis, whether and how to image, and first-line treatment options for frozen shoulder.
