What are the treatments for cervical spondylosis and frozen shoulder?

Cervical spondylosis and periarthritis of the shoulder are actually very common in modern working people. Because many office workers sit for a long time and work long hours, this leads to the occurrence of such diseases, and over time it will aggravate the condition and cause severe pain. If the cervical spondylosis and periarthritis of the shoulder are relatively mild, simple rest can actually have a good therapeutic effect.

Allopathic therapy for this disease is mainly a lesion of the tissues around the shoulder joint, which often causes adhesion of the joint. To this end, functional exercise and local manipulation, passive and active shoulder joint movements are the fundamental ways to prevent shoulder adhesion, muscle atrophy and restore health. The confrontational therapy requires perseverance and is based on self-training. The method is: do 3 kinds of exercises consciously after getting up every morning.

First, automatic massage exercise, that is, use the healthy hand to massage the affected shoulder muscles, repeating the massage exercise from top to bottom and from front to back 30 times;

Second , shoulder joint exercise, that is, lift the upper limb on the affected side forward, lift it toward the opposite shoulder, rotate it backward to the scapula of the opposite shoulder, and rotate the hand in a circle in front of the chest, each action 30 times;

Third, shoulder and limb raising exercises, which is to make a scale on the wall or tree trunk in advance, and then use all your strength to endure the pain and raise your arms from low to high until your fingers touch the self-set scale, and do it 30 times in a row. Perform shoulder movements a total of 180 times in 3 exercises. If you can endure the pain, persist, progress slowly and gradually, and exercise for one month, the illness will heal on its own without treatment. This method is most beneficial for preventing disability and restoring function as quickly as possible. In the stretch therapy, the patient kneels upright on a cushion, raises his shoulders as far as possible, retracts his head and neck as far as possible (it seems that he feels that his shoulders are about to touch his ears), and then drops his shoulders as far as possible. This process is repeated 30 times each. It has a very good effect on shoulder and neck pain (the so-called "sprain"). Massage therapy mainly involves the practitioner performing four massage movements:

(1) The patient sits upright and the surgeon stands behind the patient. The surgeon places one hand on the patient's affected shoulder and the other hand under the patient's elbow on the same side. When the patient's arm is abducted upward, the surgeon presses down with the hand on the affected shoulder to prevent the movement of the thoracic scapula. The surgeon then pushes upward with the hand below the shoulder to stretch the patient's arm as far as possible. Repeat this 20 times.

(2) The operator faces the patient who is sitting upright , places one hand under the patient's elbow on the affected side, and holds the patient's wrist on the affected side with the other hand, and rotates the patient's upper limb outward in a circular motion. Repeat this rotation 20 times.

(3) The patient stands with his back against a wall and places his hands behind his head. The surgeon faces the patient and holds the elbow on the healthy side against the wall (mainly to prevent the patient from twisting his body). With the other hand, the surgeon holds the patient's elbow on the affected side and presses it down against the wall. This action is repeated 20 times.

(4) Ask the patient to maintain the position of the third technique , stretch the healthy arm over the head and lean against the wall. The operator will grasp the elbow joint of the patient's affected limb with his hand and push it against the wall. Repeat this action 20 times.
