The study will compare the shoulder and wrist treatment approaches to determine their effect on elbow. Thirty-two medically stable participants with active shoulder and wrist movements will be enrolled into two groups. Both groups will receive structured training for six weeks. Outcomes will be measured using standardized assessment tools. The aim is to identify the more effective strategy for improving upper limb kinetic chain which is affected by lateral epicondylitis

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group A: Wrist heavy slow resistance exercises with hot pack. | Experimental | Hot pack applied to target muscles (depending on requirement of patient like wrist and finger extensors) with 15-20 minutes duration Treatment: Wrist heavy slow resistance exercises performed with the help of weights by stabilizing the hand on the table. As the repetitions will got increased, as the weight will decrease. Sessions conducted 3 times/week for 6 weeks. |
|
| Group B: Shoulder stabilization exercises with hot pack. | Active Comparator | Hot pack applied to target muscles (depending on requirement of patient like shoulder stabilizers) with 15-20 minutes duration Treatment: This trial include the shoulder stabilization exercises performed with the help of theraband by stabilizing the subject across the wall and check the effect on elbow to treat lateral epicondylitis. Sessions conducted 3 times/week for 6 weeks. |
