Interventions
ozonated gel phonophoresis
Patients will receive ultrasonic with ozonated gel as a coupling medium (phonophoresis) (1 MHz, 1 W/cm2 continuous mode) for 5 min, three times per week for four weeks.
conventional treatment
Patients will receive conventional treatment consisting of hot pack application and stretching exercises targeting the upper trapezius and pectoralis minor muscles. Stretching will be performed for three repetitions, each held for 30 seconds with 30 seconds of rest between repetitions. This will be followed by strengthening exercises for the external shoulder rotators, lower trapezius, and serratus anterior muscles using color-coded elastic resistance bands, performed as three sets of ten repetitions for each muscle group.Treatment sessions will be conducted three times per week for four weeks.
