How many times a day can you do exercises for shoulder periarthritis?
Disease description:
My master recently developed shoulder periarthritis and is experiencing significant discomfort in the shoulder area. After receiving treatment at the hospital, he now needs to perform some rehabilitative exercises, but we're unsure about the appropriate frequency. How many times a day should one perform exercises for shoulder periarthritis?

Dr. Lin Yunfei
Patients with shoulder periarthritis can perform training two to three times a day. Try to reach slightly higher than the previous day, making gradual daily progress. There is a method called "violent tearing," for example, if you can lift your arm only to a certain height today, and then forcefully push it higher, the pain may worsen the next day due to local edema and bleeding. As a result, symptoms on the second day may be worse than on the first day, and if repeated on the third day, the condition could become even more severe than the previous day. Pay attention to the range of motion and adhere to the principle of moderation.
