No instant solution I'm afraid. I found relief by by putting a small electric blanket on it (hot pad). After three months I was due to have and orthopaedic surgeon operate on it but over just a few days it started to eventually get better. I was desperate, to the point of even looking forward to the operation. You have my sympathy. The worst consuming pain I have ever had, my triple heart by-pass operation was a doddle by comparison.

There are some good ideas posted already, but I definitely wouldn't just wait for it to go away or expect it to take months.
This is something that needs attention as soon as possible.
A lot of problems are referred (a problem in your neck can cause impaired nerve and blood supply to areas served by the relevant spinal nerve) so the first thing you need to do is check out whether the cause is in your neck - I would recommend seeing a good McTimoney chiropractor or osteopath.
Next thing could be to explore something of direct attention to the area, while remaining holistic, such as the Bowen Technique (this has had great success with frozen shoulders), Craniosacral Therapy, while also considering a first class sports injury masseur. Bowen Technique requires you do not have other therapies at the same time except homoeopathy, while cranial and massage can be used concurrently.
Acupuncture can be very useful but go to someone properly qualified in the traditional form as Drs and Physios have very little training in the important complexities of it.
The above is the order in which I would approach the problem, including homoeopathy. Remember that the body rarely comes up with a physical symptom without a corresponding non-physical cause; this is where consulting a classical homoeopath can be very useful.
Good Luck! Nothing is ever guaranteed, but don't believe there is no cure - I know many people who have responded very well and are out of pain through the above ideas.

You have to go to physical therapy. They will manually break up the muscle fibers that are grown together that cause the lack of range of motion. During each session, the therapist will break up a bit more. It's extremely painful and it will take months of physical therapy plus daily home exercises to keep the arm mobile. You'll have to take anti-inflammatory pills to keep the inflammation at bay.
Another option is surgery, but that entails the same procedure, except that the doctor will tear the muscle while you're anesthesized. Most orthopedic surgeons don't like to do the procedure because there's a great risk of breaking your shoulder during surgery. If you have surgery, it too will be followed by months of physical therapy.
Chances are that you will not regain 100% range of motion, but 98-99%.
There is no cure. A lot of people over the age of 40 suddenly get a frozen shoulder and nobody really knows why.
Go get it taken care of now! The longer you wait, the worse it gets.

I would find a good massage therapist trained in Neuromuscular and medical/orthopeaedic massage. Working with the soft tissues will help very much and is a natural way to heal. You may also need some anti-inflammatory pills such as Aleve. A good massage therapist or physical therapist can show you exercises to use as the tissues become more mobile and flexible. If this fails, you may need cortisone injections.

frozen shoulder is a condition in which the inner membranes of the shoulder joint get inflamed and then fused with each other to cause immobility.
but this condition is reversible of its own( unless age is not the risk factor), you just have to wait for sometime, with proper physiotherapy and medication the mobility can be slowly increased. the patient usually becomes well within 6 months-1 year.

It is very easy and also cost free. Press the web between little finger and ring finger at the joint of the fingers and also between index finger and middle finger at the joint. You will observe great pain but don't worry. Apply little cream and rub these areas to remove the pain. After you have removed the pain in 2 to 3 day's time, you will feel better. Press the points between index finger and thumb at the base (soft portion towards wrist) for better results. Best of health.

You need to go see your Doctor.....

The treatment of a frozen shoulder usually requires an aggressive combination of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication (NSAIDs), cortisone injection into the shoulder, and physical therapy.

Go to a skilled acupuncturist. You will get through. There is no medicine for this problem.
