Brief Summary:
Tennis elbow, clinically known as lateral epicondylitis, is a prevalent musculoskeletal issue marked by pain and tenderness on the outer part of the elbow. It primarily affects the extensor tendon at the lateral epicondyle and is commonly linked to repetitive arm movements and overuse. Various treatment options are available for this condition, with two notable methods being sustained stretching and Mobilization with Movement (MWM). Sustained stretching involves holding the affected muscles and tendons in an extended position for a prolonged time to ease muscle tightness and enhance flexibility. Conversely, MWM integrates specific joint movements with the active involvement of the patient to improve joint mobility and reduce pain. Muscle strength plays a crucial role in the overall function of the upper limb, and enhancing this can positively affect daily activities. Furthermore, functional disability indicates how tennis elbow impacts a person's capacity to carry out everyday tasks.
Detailed Description:
This randomized clinical trial will be conducted at Riphah Rehab center over duration of eight months. The sample size will consist of 58 participants. Participants which meet the inclusion criteria will be taken through non-probability convenience sampling technique. 29 Participants will be assigned to Group A 29 to group B. Data will be collected using various assessment tools, including NPRS, ULFI, Universal Goniometer, Hand Held Dynamometer. Pre-intervention assessments will be conducted for groups. Data analysis will be performed by using SPSS 26 software.
