The survey of the effect of four weeks program of a selective physical therapy and electrotherapy on the measure of frozen shoulder pain and the range of motion

Frozen shoulder syndrome is a common condition that leads to pain in glen humeral joint and loss of motion. It is documented that frozen shoulder syndrome associated with cardiac and diabete problems. The purpose this study was to determine the effect of a selective physical therapy and electrotherapy four weeks program on frozen shoulder pain and the range of motin. 19 patients affected by FSS with the average of 56.37 years divided in two experimental and control groups. For the electrotherapy has been performed. The experimental group both electrotherapy and the exercise therapy programs have been performed. VAS scale used to the evaluation the activity pain and night pain. The shoulder ROM evaluated at the end of each week for four weeks. The gathered data analyzed at the level of (P<0.05). Using T-test, as well as repeated measures ANOVA and Post-Hoc Toki. in both groups significant differences in activity pain decrease from the pretest to the post test (P<0.05). The experimental group showed more activity pain decrease but this difference was not significant statistically (P=0.300). Both groups showed significant difference in the night pain decrease from the pretest to the post test (P<0.05). The experimental group also showed more night pain decrease between two groups (P=0.032).In the examination of the increase of the shoulder ROM from primary assessment to fourth week, there was significant difference in experimental group (P<0.05) but this difference was not significant in the control group (p>0.05). In experimental group, the flexion improve med with 50/56ｰ progression. In comparison with the increase of the shoulder ROM between two group, the experimental group had significantly more improvement (P<0.05). The results revealed that the physical therapy is better than the electrotherapy in the improvement of the pain and ROM decrease of the patients affected by the frozen shoulder syndrome.
