Comparing shoulder stretch treatments for frozen shoulder
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study compares two different amounts of fluid injected into the shoulder joint to treat frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis). The goal is to see which volume works better for pain and movement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests two different injectable treatments for frozen shoulder: one uses a steroid plus fluid, the other uses an enzyme called hyalase. Both are meant to loosen the stiff shoulder joint and improve movement.
This trial compares two treatments for frozen shoulder: a procedure that stretches the shoulder joint with fluid, and a steroid injection. Both aim to reduce pain and improve movement, and participation could help determine which works better for you.
This trial tests if adding a gentle hands-on treatment (Spencer technique) to the standard fluid injection procedure (hydrodilation) helps people with frozen shoulder move more easily and feel better. If you have been diagnosed with unilateral frozen shoulder and have already had the hydrodilation procedure, you may qualify.
This study tests two injection treatments for frozen shoulder (stiff, painful shoulder). It compares a standard steroid injection with a combination of a steroid injection plus a nerve block, to see which provides better relief and movement.
This study compares three treatments for frozen shoulder: high-intensity laser therapy, steroid injection, and manual therapy. It aims to find which approach works best for reducing pain and improving movement in people with this condition.
