Brief Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy and phonophoresis treatment on pain function hand grip strength and tendon thickness in ultrasonography in patients with lateral epicondylitis
Detailed Description: Lateral epicondylitis LE is tendinopathy of the forearm extensor muscles often caused by overuse or repetitive use forced wrist extension or direct trauma to the epicondyle It is the most common cause of lateral elbow pain Although also known as tennis elbow lateral epicondylitis often develops as a work-related condition and is therefore a significant public health problem

ESWT It involves transmitting high-intensity acoustic pressure waves produced by electrohydraulic electromagnetic or piezoelectric devices to the target area of the body in a short time through the gel It has been reported that ESWT increases collagen synthesis in tendons bones and other soft tissues accelerates vascularization and reduces pain

ultrasound It has been used for many years in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders such as tendinitis epicondylitis tenosynovitis bursitis and osteoarthritis It produces acoustic waves through the conversion of electrical energy These waves turn into heat as they pass through tissues at different resistance levels Ultrasound is also used to enhance percutaneous absorption of drugs in phonophoresis applications
