Effects of Moderate Physical Activity on Diabetic Adhesive Capsulitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

This study aims to investigate the effect of additional Physical activity programmes in patients with Diabetic Frozen Shoulder (DFS). Physical activity can help people with diabetes achieve a variety of goals, including increased cardiorespiratory fitness, increased vigour, improved glycemic control, decreased insulin resistance, improved lipid profile, blood pressure (BP) reduction and maintenance of weight loss Frozen shoulder syndrome, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a clinical entity that refers to a stiff and painful shoulder causing major functional impairment. It affects women more than men, and is mostly associated with diabetes mellitus as a systemic condition. . Frozen shoulder may be either primary idiopathic or secondary to a systemic disease, such as diabetes mellitus. The adoption and maintenance of physical activity are critical for blood glucose management and overall health in individuals with diabetes. In this Position Statement, we provide a clinically oriented review and evidence based recommendations regarding physical activity and exercise in people with type 2 diabetes.
