Hi I m dr Alok, pleased to answer your health related queries
Frozen shoulder and rotator cuff tear both are different entity
You need to see a rheumatologist to find out the cause of recurrent problem and see whether it can be helped by physiotherapy
Sometime intraarticular injection may help
I must advise you to reevaluate your shoulder by a rheumatologist
Hope this will help
