N2  - This study was done to assess the therapeutic efficacy of forearm support band and wrist splint in minimizing severity of pain and improving hand grip strength with lateral epicondylitis cases, and determine which one of these two common splints is more effective to reduce pain intensity and improve grip strength. Method: Thirty male and female patients with tennis elbow were selected from orthopedic Department at National instate of neurolocomotor system. All patients were randomly assigned into two groups. The group (A) (n = 15, mean age: 44.8 ± 6.87 years) received forearm support band for four weeks, while the group (B) (n = 15, mean age: 42.86 ± 6.34 years) received wrist splint. All patients received exercises (12 sessions, 3 sessions per week) over a four weeks period. They were evaluated using visual analoug scale to determine the pain intensity, and handheld dynamometer to determine hand grip strength in both groups
