Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you have got your MRI of your shoulder. This MRI is showing that you are having mild to moderate osteoarthritis changes(it has become rough). These are age related.Another main finding is adhesive capsulitis (Frozen shoulder) meaning shoulder joint has stiffness and no or little movements. There are other age related changes .There are no extra fluid inside the joint. Other things of joint are normal. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.
