Hi,I am Dr. Herrick J. Siegel (Orthopedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Diagnosed as frozen shoulder. Getting leg pain and can't work properly. Is this pain connected to shoulder?
My mother has been suffering severe shoulder pain and has been diagnosed with frozen shoulder . She has had the shoulder paid an restricetd movement for about 6 days. The shoulder pain got slightly better but today she has severe pain in her leg and can barely walk. what could be the problem and is it connected to her shoulder?
It is unlikely that the two problems are connected if the diagnosis in the shoulder is truly frozen shoulder. Now she has two joint issues then this may cause your Dr to reconsider his initial diagnosis.
