Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Change from baseline of severity of symptoms and functional status using QDASH questionnaire in the two groups. 2. Change from baseline of pain using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in the two groups. 3. Change from baseline of range of movements using goniometer in the two groups. 4. Comparison of the improvement between the two groups.Timepoint: Evaluation will be done at baseline, 6 weeks and 12 weeks

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Comparison of improvement of quality of life after the completion of the treatment in both groups using WORC. 2. To document any change in USG appearances/findings in the two groups, if any.Timepoint: Evaluation will be done at baseline, 6 weeks & 12 weeks
