Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.
Frozen shoulder i snot caused by medication.It is a disease of joint that occurs with age & if patient is having diabetes and/or hypertension. It can be improved by physiotherapy exercises. I would suggest you to visit an orthopedic surgeon for prescription and then physiotherapist. he will tell some particular exercises for shoulder which if performed regularly will improve the symptoms.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing him good health.
