Wrist and shoulder exercises for tennis elbow pain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Age 30–50 years old
- Diagnosed with tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) by an orthopedic doctor

- Pain score of 4 or higher on a pain scale
- Positive Cozen's test (a specific elbow test your doctor performs)
- Normal bone and joint alignment in your upper arm (confirmed by X-ray)

This study compares two treatments for lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow): shockwave therapy and eccentric exercises. It aims to see which approach works better for reducing pain and improving arm function.
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.
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 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.
