NSAIDs for Frozen Shoulder Pain Study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests different types of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to see which works best for people with frozen shoulder. It may help you if you have ongoing shoulder pain and stiffness without other shoulder injuries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have had shoulder pain for at least one month and your doctor has diagnosed you with primary frozen shoulder.
- Your shoulder pain is at least 4 out of 10 on a 0 to 10 pain scale.
- You cannot move your shoulder as much as normal in at least two directions (like lifting your arm forward, to the side, or turning outward).
- You are not taking any NSAID pain relievers or steroid injections, and you do not have other shoulder problems, major health conditions, or allergies to NSAIDs.

This study tests whether ultrasound-guided injections into the shoulder can improve pain and movement in people with frozen shoulder. It may help if you have had shoulder pain for at least 3 months and other treatments haven't worked well.
This trial compares two treatments for frozen shoulder: a corticosteroid injection into the shoulder joint and a nerve block (injection near the shoulder nerve) to reduce pain and improve movement. It aims to find which approach works better for people with frozen shoulder.
This study tests whether a combination of gentle joint movement techniques, pain education, and core-strengthening exercises can help people with frozen shoulder move better and feel less pain. It may be a good fit if you have been diagnosed with frozen shoulder and are looking for a drug-free treatment option.
This study compares two gentle hands-on therapies to see which works better for reducing pain, improving movement, and helping you use your shoulder again. It is for people with frozen shoulder who have had pain for more than 6 months.
This study tests a treatment called perineural injection therapy, where a sugar-water solution (dextrose) is injected around the nerves in your shoulder. It may help reduce pain and improve movement in people with frozen shoulder that hasn't improved with other treatments.
This study tests whether adding a specific muscle-release technique to shoulder exercises helps reduce pain and improve movement in frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis). Frozen shoulder causes stiffness and pain that limits arm movement; this trial explores whether combining two physical therapy methods works better than standard care.
