The orthopedist and the rheumatologist are the professionals who most frequently evaluate adhesive capsulitis, also known as "frozen shoulder," a condition in which the capsule surrounding the shoulder joint becomes stiff and painful.

What it is: It progressively limits movement of the shoulder, which makes everyday actions such as getting dressed or reaching for objects overhead difficult.

Common symptoms:

• Increasing stiffness of the shoulder
• Gradual loss of mobility

When should you seek care? When the pain and limitation interfere with daily activities or do not improve over time, it is advisable to discuss it with a specialist in the musculoskeletal system, such as the orthopedist or the rheumatologist, for a careful evaluation.
