THE KINETIC APPROACH OF LATERAL EPICONDYLITIS RECOVERY
We conducted a study of 10 patiets affected by lateral epicondylitis, 5 woman and 5 men, aged between 20 and 38. In the initial evaluation, I applied 2 tests: VAS Scale, for pain assessment and Oxford Questionnaire to assess the functional deficit. Initial testing showed a very high value of the...

| Summary: | We conducted a study of 10 patiets affected by lateral
epicondylitis, 5 woman and 5 men, aged between 20 and 38. In the initial
evaluation, I applied 2 tests: VAS Scale, for pain assessment and Oxford
Questionnaire to assess the functional deficit. Initial testing showed a very
high value of the pain scale, an average of 8,5 out of 10 and the Oxford
questionnaire demonstrated that the deficiencies caused by epicondylitis
make the usual activities very difficult, as evidenced by an average of 21,3
out of 48. After 20 days of the rehabilitation treatment, meanwhile I worked
on improvingin the analgesia andrestoring mobility and stability within the
functional limits, I obtained a final assessment of the improvement of Pain
Scale and Oxford Questionnaire scores. |
