Abstract

Elbow is the inconspicuous part of the body, that we rarely notice it, unless it hurts. Pain at the elbow is often caused by, injuries to the tendons. Sometimes a muscle injury may cause the pain to extend down the forearm. There are other structures surrounding the elbow, that can become strained or inflamed, but muscles and tendons cause the most troubling problems.Based on statistical analysis, the results of this study showed that there was significant improvement in both groups. The results also showed that the subjects who participated in experimental Group B had shown good improvement on functional status and pain-free grip than the control Group A. Based on the results, this study concluded that both Cyriax physiotherapy and Phonophoresis with exercise reduce the pain and improve the function and pain-free grip in lateral epicondylalgia. Meanwhile, the Cyriax friction massage with Mill’s manipulation is more effective than the Phonophoresis with supervised exercise in reducing the pain and improving the function and pain-free grip in lateral epicondylalgia.
