简要总结
Lateral epicondylitis or tennis elbow is one of the most common lesions of the arm. This injury is a major challenge, as it is difficult to treat, prone to recurrence and may last for several weeks or months, with an average duration of a typical episode which has been reported to be between six months to two years. This is an RCT study. Subjects who fulfilled inclusion criteria will be taken for the study. Before conducting the actual method for subjects, lateral epicondylitis evaluation is done. First day before treatment, pain evaluation were done by using Numeric Pain Rating Scale. Muscle power was assessed by MMT (Manual Muscle Testing) and the function level are tested by Patient-Related Tennis Elbow Evaluation (PRTEE) questionnaire and asked to mark the results. Subjects will be divided into 2 groups randomly by lottery method. Each group consists of 15 patients. Group A will be given MWM; Group B will be given soft tissue mobilization. Both groups will be given with the above said methods for alternative days in a week as per 3 sessions per week for 4 weeks. At the end of program subjects will be reassessed by recording muscle strength, pain intensity and functional level. Finally pre and post recordings will be compared and analyzed statistically.

结局指标
主要结局
Functional activity
时间窗: 4 weeks
Patient Related Tennis Elbow Evaluation (PRTEE) was used.The PrTEEQ is a 15-item questionnaire, it's designed to measure forearm pain and disability in patients with lateral epicondylitis. The patients have to rate their levels of tennis elbow pain and disability from 0 to 10, and consists of 2 subscales. There is the pain subscale (0 = no pain, 10 = worst imaginable) en the function subscale (0 = no difficulty, 10 = unable to do)
Numeric Pain Rating Scale
时间窗: 4 Week
The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) (an outcome measure) that is a unidimensional measure of pain intensity in adults.The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable")
Grip Strength
时间窗: 4 week
Manual muscle testing as used to test grip strength. It involves testing key muscles from the upper and lower extremities against the examiner's resistance and grading the patient's strength on a 0 to 5 scale accordingly\[1\]: Flicker of movement Through full range actively with gravity counterbalanced Through full range actively against gravity Through full range actively against some resistance Through full range actively against strong resistance
