Mobilition With Movement and Soft Tissue Mobiiztion in Tennis Elbow

Lateral epicondylitis or tennis elbow is one of the most common lesions of the arm. This injury is a major challenge, as it is difficult to treat, prone to recurrence and may last for several weeks or months, with an average duration of a typical episode which has been reported to be between six months to two years. This is an RCT study. Subjects who fulfilled inclusion criteria will be taken for the study. Before conducting the actual method for subjects, lateral epicondylitis evaluation is done. First day before treatment, pain evaluation were done by using Numeric Pain Rating Scale. Muscle power was assessed by MMT (Manual Muscle Testing) and the function level are tested by Patient-Related Tennis Elbow Evaluation (PRTEE) questionnaire and asked to mark the results. Subjects will be divided into 2 groups randomly by lottery method. Each group consists of 15 patients. Group A will be given MWM; Group B will be given soft tissue mobilization. Both groups will be given with the above said methods for alternative days in a week as per 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks. At the end of program subjects will be reassessed by recording muscle strength, pain intensity and functional level. Finally pre and post recordings will be compared and analyzed statistically.
