  ##FOREARM MUSCLES WITH NERVE SUPPLY
     --Flexors 
(1) Superficial 
Pronator Teres                           - Median nerve
Flexor carpii radialis                  - Median nerve
Palmaris longus                         - Median nerve    Flexor digitorum superficialis  - Median nerve
Flexor carpii ulnaris                   - Ulnar nerve

(2)Deep
Flexor digitorum profundus (MEDIAL ½) - Ulnar nerve and (LATERAL ½) - AIN
Flexor policis longus      - AIN
Pronator Quadratus.       - AIN
>AIN = Anterior Introcius Nerve (deep branch of median nerve)

(1)Superficial
Anconeus                        - Radial nerve
Brachio radialis              - Radial nerve 
Extensor carpii radialis longus  - Radial nerve
Extensor carpii radialis brevis
Extensor digitorum 
Extensor digitii minimi
Extensor carpii ulnaris 

(2)Deep
Supinator
Abductor policis longus
Extensor policos brevis
Extensor policis longus

With frozen shoulder, the capsule becomes so thick and tight that it’s hard to move. Bands of scar tissue form and there’s less of a liquid called synovial fluid to keep the joint lubricated.
