This study will be conducted to investigate the difference between high-intensity laser and extracorporeal shock wave on supraspinatus tendon thickness, subacromial space, occupation ratio, shoulder pain intensity, shoulder range of motion (ROM), hand strength, and functional disability in patients with chronic supraspinatus tendinopathy.
Patients from 18 to 50 years old of both genders.
Unilateral Chronic Supraspinatus Tendinitis in dominant side
BMI 18.5-24.9
Tenderness is found over the supraspinatus as it passes subacromial and anterolateral The patient will report pain with active shoulder elevation in the scapular plane (eg: welders, plate workers, slaughterhouse workers and overhead playing athletes)
Post shoulder surgery, traumatic incidents
Partial tears at surgery
Massive retracted tears at surgery
Frozen shoulder Rotator cuff tear
