TENNIS ELBOW

This study tested advanced ultrasound methods (power Doppler, SWE, MV-Flow, and B-Mode) to see if they can better detect and measure tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis). Researchers compared these imaging results with standard clinical scores in 50 adults. The goal was to improv…

This study tested a new treatment for tennis elbow (lateral epicondylalgia), a common condition causing elbow pain. Researchers gave 60 participants either real or fake (sham) electrical stimulation to the radial nerve, combined with exercises. The goal was to see if the real sti…

This study tested whether a gel containing piroxicam plus warming/cooling ingredients works as well as two other common anti-inflammatory gels for muscle, bone, and joint pain. 180 adults aged 18-60 with conditions like ankle sprain or back pain used one of three gels for about 6…

This study tested whether a botulinum toxin injection (like Botox) can reduce pain in people with tennis elbow that hasn't gotten better after six months of usual care. Sixty-one adults took part in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The main goal was to measure pain inten…

This study tested whether adding nerve stretches (neural mobilization) to a standard joint technique (Mulligan) helps people with chronic tennis elbow. Sixty adults with elbow pain lasting over three months took part. The goal was to see if the combo reduces pain, improves hand f…

This study looked at two treatments for chronic tennis elbow (lateral epicondylosis) in 64 workers who had not gotten better after 6 months of standard care. One group received a minimally invasive ultrasound-guided needle procedure (tendon fenestration) to stimulate healing, whi…

This study tested whether ozone injections or simple home exercises work better for tennis elbow pain. Fifty-nine adults with tennis elbow received either ozone shots or an exercise program. Researchers measured pain, arm function, and quality of life to see which approach offere…

This study tested whether adding a special nerve-stretching technique to standard physical therapy helps people with chronic tennis elbow. 46 adults with long-lasting elbow pain received either usual care or usual care plus radial nerve mobilization. Researchers measured pain, gr…

This study looked at three different types of arm movement therapy (Maitland, Mulligan, and nerve mobilization) combined with wrist exercises to treat chronic tennis elbow in 45 adults aged 18 to 45. The goal was to see which approach best reduces pain, improves hand grip strengt…

This study compared two common treatments for tennis elbow: kinesiotaping (a special tape) and wearing a wrist splint. Researchers enrolled 150 adults who had elbow pain for at least 3 months. They measured pain levels and grip strength to see which treatment worked better. The g…
