If you have follow-up physical therapy, be meticulous in doing the at-home exercises.

Dont try to short cut the healing process ... you will pay for it in the long run
Do your physical therapy or you will lose range of motion. frozen shoulder- develps an adhesive capsule from scar tissue and lack of use. The old adage use it, or lose it, is really true.
(I am a Massage therapy Instuctor and have worked with chiropractors and physical therapists with shoulder injuries.)
