If you are a women in your 40s or 50s and suddenly can't reach overhead, fasten your bra, or sleep comfortably on your side, it may be more than "getting older."
Research suggests women going through menopause may have a higher risk of developing frozen shoulder, a condition that causes pain, stiffness, and a gradual loss of shoulder motion. Hormonal changes may play a role, but the good news is that early diagnosis and treatment can help restore movement and reduce pain.
