To study the effect of tricep strengthening in lateral epicondylitis

Abstract

Aim: “To Study the effect of tricep strengthening in lateral epicondylitis” Objectives: To study the effect of tricep srtenghthening on pain relief. To study the effect of tricep strenghthening in functional activities. To study the effect of conventional therapy on pain relief. To study the effect of conventional therapy on functional activities. To compare the effect of tricep strength thening and conventional therapy on pain and functional activities. Procedure: 30 Samples were collected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Then Consent was taken from the respective subjects to conduct the study. Respective protocol was followed for Group A and Group B; and treatment protocol was followed for 2 weeks. Pre and post values of subjects was assessed by numerical pain rating scale, strength of elbow flexors with 10 RM, isometric strength of triceps was reassessed by Jamar dynamometer, and pain and functional assessment with patient rated tennis elbow evaluation questionnaire. Data was collected and analyzed statistically. Results: t value for NPRS comparion between group A and B is 0.871. At p value 0.391: considered Significant at p≤ 0.05 with 95 % confidence interval. t value for 10RM in group A and B in pre and post treatment is -1.169. At p value 0.252: considered Significant at p≤ 0.05 with 95 % confidence interval. t value for isometric strength of right triceps with jamar dynamometer is-0.561. At p value 0.579: considered Significant at p≤ 0.05 with 95 % confidence interval. t value for isometric strength of left triceps with jamar dynamometer is 0.469. At p value 0.643: considered Significant at p≤ 0.05 with 95 % confidence interval. t value for comparison between PRTEEQ in group A and B is 0.871. At p value 0.391: considered Significant at p≤ 0.05 with 95 % confidence interval. Conclusion: This study concludes that triceps strengthening along with conventional physiotherapy program has shown better improvement on NPRS,10RM, (Triceps) Isometric strength with JAMAR DYNAMOMTERE score as compared to conventional physiotherapy alone over 2 week of training program.
