Summary

Lateral epicondylitis (LE) is a pain causing musculoskeletal disease which mainly occurs due to the over exertion or over use of extensors of wrist mainly ECRB and pain is felt at the origin of common extensor tendon. This study was focused to assess the effectiveness of cyriax approach and mulligan approach to improve the functional status of sub acute lateral epicondylitis patients through patient related tennis elbow evaluation form.

Conditions

  • Lateral Epicondylitis

Interventions

OTHER

Cyriax approach i.e. DTF massage and Mill's manipulation

Each patient in group I i.e. Cyriax group was given 20-minute session. Each session started in sitting position and initially deep transverse friction massage was done at lateral compartment of the elbow joint and immediately after that mill's manipulation at elbow joint with flexion at wrist joint in pronated arm position. This session was repeated three times a week for one month (Total 12 sessions/ one month).

OTHER

Mulligan approach i.e. Taping and MWM

Each patient in group II i.e. Mulligan group was given 30 to 45-minute session. Each session started in sitting position and it included mobilization with movement which was given in such a way that initially lateral glide at elbow joint was performed and after holding it, I asked the patient to make a fist and open the fist. In this way, I repeated this procedure 36 times and after 12 repetitions, a short rest period was given. Taping was applied after mobilization around the elbow joint over extensor carpi radialis muscles. This session was repeated three times a week for one month (Total 12 sessions/ one month).
