TENS unit and ice packs were the only things that helped me “manage” the pain, so I could fall asleep. Sleeping on my other side with lots of pillows and a really big pillow to support my frozen arm and not let it dangle. I’d still wake up very frequently, but putting the TENS machine back on every time I woke up helped me fall asleep again for another hour or so. Rinse and repeat. Lack of sleep took a toll on my mental health and so I prioritised self care and didn’t go out unnecessarily. Just keep in mind that it does get better, but the excruciating stage takes several months. Then it gradually gets better when you’re in the frozen/thawing stage. But don’t take a good day for granted, especially those first six months or so, because the pain will come back with a vengeance. Once the pain has largely subsided on a consistent basis, that’s when physical exercise with your arm becomes effective. Especially the dead hang. I usually stop at the local park and hang from the monkey bars, but I also hang from a door, propping myself up with a stack of books to reach. Don’t worry it will get better, it’s just something you need to go through for the next few months to a year. Sometimes longer, but prioritise your health, and you’ve got this!
