Post Burn Cubital Tunnel Syndrome Response to High Intensity Laser Therapy Versus Shock Wave Therapy

Post-burn cubital tunnel syndrome is a disabling complication that may occur after upper-limb burns involving the elbow due to edema, scar formation, and tissue compression around the ulnar nerve. This randomized controlled trial compared the additive effects of high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) and extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), when combined with ulnar nerve gliding exercises, on electrophysiological parameters and upper-limb function in adults with clinically and electrophysiologically confirmed unilateral post-burn cubital tunnel syndrome following healed second- or third-degree burns.
