Brief Summary
The aim of this study was to investigate the acute effect of CT application in combination with ESWT and ESWT on pain and grip strength in athletes/patients with lateral epicondylitis.It is planned that at least 30 athletes aged 18-40 who are at the Ministry of Youth and Sports, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Health Affairs and who have been diagnosed with LE by specialist doctor. After taking the information about birth dates, height, weight and dominant sides of the athletes who are willing to participate in the study, pain intensities and hand grip strengths will be evaluated. Then the athletes will be randomly divided into 2 groups according to closed envelope method. First group ESWT application; 4 sessions will be held for 4 weeks. The second group included ESWT + CT; 4 sessions will be held for 4 weeks. Pain severity and hand grip strength will be evaluated again after treatment.
