What can i do to alleviate frozen shoulder pain?

Rest: Pain from a frozen shoulder is often difficult to control during the inflammatory phase. Most of the time, the pain is self-limiting and will improve on its own. In the meantime, antiinflammatory medications and occasional cortisone injections can calm the inflammation down and reduce pain.

Stretch: Frozen shoulder is diagnosed when your passive range of motion (someone else moving your arm) is less than it is on the other side. This should be treated with primarily stretching to regain range of motion. This will help it along to resolve on its own as dr. Lu said. I also agree that if you have constant pain (even at night) and it is still early on a cortisone shot in the gh joint may help.

Variable treatment : Typically starting with physical therapy, anti inflammatory, cortisone injections. Reaution can take up to 18 months with conservative treatment. Arthroscopic capsular release and manipulation can be performed surgically to expedite the process if patients plateau.

Cortisone injection: I strongly advocate for a cortisone injection. It can quickly and effectively treat the pain and inflammation from frozen shoulder. Check out this video for details. http://youtu.be/h-umxi8yi0e.
