Capsular Stretches and Shoulder Mobility Exercises to Improve Range of Motion of Secondary Adhesive Capsulitis Following Recurrent Shoulder Dislocation - A Case Report

Abstract The majority of patients will experience some post-traumatic stiffness following traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation, but this typically goes away on its own. Rarely do traumatic anterior shoulder instability result in secondary frozen shoulder. However, a tiny but expected percentage of patients who first have frozen shoulder may later experience secondary frozen shoulder, which causes pain and stiffness and slows rehabilitation. It's possible that this will happen after a period of shoulder immobilization, albeit the exact cause is still unknown. This case report details the results of professional physical therapy interventions used to treat secondary adhesive capsulitis after recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations using a conservative approach. This case study aimed to show how physical therapy can help people with secondary adhesive capsulitis restore, range of motion, strength and improve shoulder function.
Keywords Case report, secondary shoulder periarthritis, frozen shoulder, anterior shoulder dislocation, instability, physical therapy, functional status, physical function.
