What is the best procedure to treat a frozen shoulder?

Doctor's Answers 1

Thank you for your question. I would like to direct you to the article on frozen shoulders here that I wrote a few months back as it might be helpful.

There are various treatments/procedures available for frozen shoulders including

1. Physiotherapy

2. Ultrasound guided injections

3. Hydrodilatations

4. Surgical treatments

Depending on what you have/haven’t tried (and depending on what your physician or hospital is able to provide) you could try any combination of these.

Hope this helps.

Can a GP clear someone to drive after seizures in Singapore?

Thank you for posting your question. We are under strict guidelines proposed by the Singapore Medical Association. I have reproduced a small portion for you below. The decision depends on the diagnosis of the seizure, and the type of vehicle that you are driving. There wouldn’t be any point doctor-hopping, as all of us follow the exact same guidelines.

Is it safe to continue doing sports with a mild disc bulge?

Thanks for your question. This is indeed problem that many of us will face as we get older and certainly even in young patients this may occur. My only question to you is why you underwent the MRI? Was it for back pain or nerve symptoms in your limbs? As a Sports/MSK physician, I believe that exercise is a essential. This will help keep the weight off, maintain your strength and hopefully limit the progression of your wear and tear (degenerative) changes in your back.
