Pregnant women with shoulder periarthritis pain can be treated with certain physical therapies, such as local heat application, infrared lamp therapy, and gentle massage. These methods can effectively promote blood circulation and relieve pain. When massaging, attention must be paid to proper massage techniques. When applying heat, care should be taken to ensure the temperature is not too high to avoid burns. In addition, it is important to keep the shoulders warm, as exposure to wind or cold may worsen symptoms after a cold. If shoulder periarthritis symptoms are severe and affect daily activities, timely medical treatment at a hospital is also recommended to alleviate pain.
