ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a new approach to help people with chronic tennis elbow, a condition that causes pain and discomfort in the outer part of the elbow. The researchers want to see if combining two treatment methods—neural mobilization and the Mulligan technique—can improve pain, grip strength, and overall function in patients with this condition.
To participate in the trial, you must be between 20 and 60 years old and have been diagnosed with chronic tennis elbow for at least three months. You should be experiencing pain in your dominant arm, especially when extending your elbow, gripping, or twisting your wrist. However, if you have certain medical conditions, such as severe neck pain, fractures, or are on pain medications, you may not be eligible to participate. If you join the trial, you can expect a supportive environment where you'll receive these treatments aimed at reducing your pain and helping you regain strength in your arm.
