Retraction of the anterior glenohumeral joint capsule, causing pain and range of motion restriction, is the hallmark of adhesive capsulitis, often known as frozen shoulder, which typically occurs in the absence of intrinsic shoulder illness. To compare efficacy between a single dose of intra-articular Triamcinolone and Methylprednisolone injection in management of adhesive capsulitis in a tertiary care hospital in eastern India (Kolkata). it is a prospective observational study, This study was conducted from July 2019 to June 2020, Place of study were Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation And Department Of Pharmacology, R G Kar Medical College and Hospital, Kolkata and total sample size 84. In Group A, the mean SDQ-1 (Mean±S.D.) of patients was 65.50±6.92. In Group B, the mean SDQ-1 (Mean±S.D.) of patients was 76.43±4.99. Distribution of mean SDQ-1 with Group was statistically significant (p<0.0001). We concluded that both methylprednisolone and triamcinolone intra-articular injections work well to treat adhesive capsulitis. Triamcinolone may provide a slightly faster improvement in functional outcome and pain reduction during the first month of treatment.
