Abstract
Lateral Epicondylitis, commonly known as Tennis Elbow, is caused by tension in the common extensor tendon, particularly at the origin of the extensor carpi radialis brevis tendon. This condition leads to pain and reduced hand grip strength, as well as impaired elbow function. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Ultrasound therapy in managing pain, improving grip strength, and enhancing elbow functionality in patients diagnosed with Tennis Elbow. The method employed is a systematic literature review, analyzing relevant studies from various scientific databases. The results show that ultrasound therapy, applied consistently over several weeks, significantly reduces pain levels, improves hand grip strength, and enhances the functional movement of the elbow. The effectiveness of ultrasound treatment is supported by the statistical significance of p<0.01, indicating a strong reduction in pain and improvements in physical function. The findings suggest that Ultrasound therapy is an effective, non-invasive modality for treating Tennis Elbow, offering substantial improvements in patient recovery.
