The trigger finger is most observed on the ring or middle fingers. Clinical signs include reduced tendon excursion and the formation of nodules at the base of the metacarpals. As a result, grip strength may be reduced, making gripping tasks uncomfortable. Many treatments have been proposed to treat trigger finger symptoms; however, the effectiveness of shockwave therapy is still being contested. As a result, the purpose of this trigger thumb case study is to assess the effect of shockwave therapy on grip performance. Case presentation: A 53-year-old housewife reported to the outpatient department with pain at the base of her right thumb, recurring locking episodes, morning pain and stiffness, and a 10-year history of diabetes. Based on the clinical presentation and physical examination of the patient, an orthopedic sports physician diagnosed it as a trigger thumb. Analgesics were initially administered, and the patient was then referred to physiotherapy for rehabilitation. All outcomes improved substantially during the follow-up after six sessions of physical therapy, which included shockwave therapy and an exercise program. Conclusion: This study concluded that the protocol developed specifically for the treatment of the trigger thumb is efficacious. Therefore, future research with a larger number of participants is required to validate this approach.

Case: This is a case of 35-year autorickshaw driver who complained an acute onset of shoulder pain and restriction. The therapist had several differential diagnoses according to the patient’s findings, however, since the cervical spine accessory movement findings were significantly associated with the patient's complaints, wet ried a cervicothoracicdirected thrust manipulation. And we noticed an immediate improvement in the patient’s symptoms following the manipulation procedure. Outcomes: The pain perception improved 4 point in10-point Numeric pain rating scale. Similarly, there were 60 degrees and 90-degree improvements in the active flexion and abduction range respectively immediately following the intervention. Conclusion: This case study concludes that a spinal thrust manipulation targeted at the cervicothoracic region can immediately alleviate shoulder pain and discomfort.
