TENNIS ELBOW

This study looked at 50 people with tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) to see if special ultrasound methods can better show tendon damage and match the patient's symptoms. Researchers compared different ultrasound techniques to standard exams. The goal was to improve how doctor…

This study tested whether combining two physical therapy techniques—muscle energy technique and Mulligan mobilization—works better than standard therapy alone for tennis elbow. Forty adults with elbow pain for at least 6 weeks took part. The goal was to reduce pain and improve da…

This study tested whether a botulinum toxin injection (like Botox) can reduce pain in people with tennis elbow that hasn't improved after 6 months of standard care. 61 adults received either the injection or a placebo (fake injection). The main goal was to measure pain levels 3 m…

This study tested whether adding a specific nerve-stretching technique to standard massage and trigger-point therapy can better relieve chronic tennis elbow. Forty-six adults with at least three months of elbow pain received either standard care alone or standard care plus radial…

This study tested whether a gel containing piroxicam plus warming and cooling ingredients (methyl salicylate, menthol, eugenol) works as well as standard piroxicam-only or diclofenac gels for muscle and joint pain. 180 adults with conditions like ankle sprain, back pain, or knee …

This study compared two common treatments for tennis elbow: a wrist splint and kinesiotaping. 150 adults with elbow pain for at least 3 months took part. Both groups also did cold therapy and home exercises. The goal was to see which approach better reduces pain and improves grip…

This completed study tested whether adding nerve mobilization (stretching the radial nerve) to the Mulligan technique (a type of joint mobilization) helps people with chronic tennis elbow. Sixty adults aged 20-60 with elbow pain lasting at least three months took part. Researcher…

This study compared ozone injections to a simple home exercise program for treating tennis elbow (lateral epicondylopathy) in 59 adults aged 18-65. The goal was to see which approach better reduced pain and improved daily function and quality of life. Participants were not allowe…

This study tested three different mobilization techniques (Maitland, Mulligan, and radial nerve mobilization) combined with eccentric exercises in 45 adults aged 18–45 with chronic tennis elbow lasting over six weeks. The goal was to see which approach best reduces pain, improves…

This study tested a treatment for tennis elbow (lateral epicondylalgia) using ultrasound-guided percutaneous electrical stimulation (PENS) on the radial nerve, combined with exercise. Sixty adults with confirmed tennis elbow were split into two groups: one received real PENS plus…

This study tests if a less invasive ultrasound-guided needle procedure can work as well as mini-open surgery for chronic tennis elbow that hasn't improved with rest or therapy. Sixty-four workers with persistent elbow pain will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. T…
