The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effects of shockwave therapy and eccentric exercises on pain, functional ability, quality of life, grip strength and range of motion in patients with lateral epicondylitis. Participants will be randomly assigned to either Group A (Shockwave therapy) or Group B (Eccentric Exercises) using a computer-generated random number tables method. The intervention will be provided over five weeks, with three sessions per week (total of 15 sessions): Group A (Shockwave therapy): Participants will receive shockwave therapy, for 5 min with energy level 7.0 m J and frequency 6 Hz. Group B (Eccentric Exercises): Participants will receive eccentric exercises, repeating each 10 repetitions 3 sets per session with a 1 min rest between each of them. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline, week 0 and week 5 to evaluate which exercise program is more effective in reducing symptoms and improving functional outcomes.
