Arm and elbow exercises for a sore tennis elbow
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two exercise programs to see which helps people with long-lasting pain on one elbow (tennis elbow). If you have symptoms for at least 3 months, the trial may help improve pain and function using supervised, elbow-focused training.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Have at least two positive elbow exam tests (Thomsen, Maudsley’s, Mills, and/or Cozen)
- Have elbow symptoms for at least 3 months
- No long-term health problem that would stop you from doing the exercise program

This study tests whether specific wrist and shoulder exercises can reduce pain and improve grip strength in people with tennis elbow (pain on the outside of the elbow). You'd do resistance exercises and stabilization work to see if they help you regain function.
This study compares two types of exercise for tennis elbow (pain on the outer elbow). It tests whether one method, sustained stretching, is better than another, movement with mobilization, for reducing pain and improving grip.
This trial tests whether combining eccentric exercises with muscle energy technique can help reduce pain and improve function in people with tennis elbow. It is for those who have had symptoms for more than a few weeks.
This study tests a combination of treatments (multimodal rehabilitation) for people with tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) that has lasted at least 2 months. It aims to see if this approach helps reduce pain and improve function.
This study compares two exercise programs for long-term tennis elbow (pain for more than a year). One group does slow lowering exercises with a blood pressure cuff on the arm, and the other does standard resistance training.
This study tests two treatments for tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis): shock wave therapy, which uses sound waves to help healing, and blood flow restriction therapy, which uses a cuff to increase blood flow during exercise. It aims to see if combining them works better than either alone, which might help reduce pain and improve your arm's function.
