The goal of the study is to determine the effect of radial shock wave Phonophoresis on patients with impingement syndromes. to answer the following questions:
does shock wave Phonophoresis have and effect on pain? does shock wave Phonophoresis have and effect on shoulder function? does shock wave Phonophoresis have and effect on subacromial space? patients will be randomized to two groups: Group (A): patients will receive shock wave Phonophoresis plus conventional physical therapy.
Group (B): Patients will receive shock wave plus conventional Physical therapy.

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Start is estimated for Jun 2026; primary completion for Oct 2026, 3 months later.
Of 170 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Shoulder Impingement Syndrome, half reached primary completion within 11 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 24. This study's planned 3 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 172 studies reached it within 12 months; a quarter within 5 and three quarters within 24.
