Is heat good for shoulder pain?
Applying heat to your shoulder increases the blood flow to the area, meaning it’s good for symptoms that might be brought on by poor circulation. This means applying heat to your shoulder is good for treating frozen shoulder or stiffness as well as muscle spasms and can really help with arthritis pain.
Is shoulder pain permanent?
The condition will usually resolve itself in time, but it may take as long as two to three years. The pain can be severe and you may feel sudden muscle pains, called muscle spasms, especially at night. You may need painkillers to help. Sometimes a treatment called a volume hydrodilatation is used for frozen shoulder.
