Not necessarily. Frozen shoulder is generally related to chronic overuse and typically occurs at a certain age. It is often accompanied by limited local mobility, and symptoms may gradually worsen over time. Patients who frequently engage in desk work with poor posture commonly experience soreness and discomfort in the shoulders. It is recommended that patients alleviate symptoms by correcting poor posture. Shoulder pain may also be caused by conditions such as shoulder joint tumors or gallbladder disease, when pain radiates to the shoulder region.
