Hi, wax isn't a treatment for tendinosis. Ultrasound, ift, taping with lifestyle modification n brace use can treat u forever. Total treatment time 20-25 days n full healing time will be around 3-4 months.

It can only be trrated with IFT+TENS.
Treatment time will be upon the condition from 8-12 weeks. With electrotherapy you also need slow exercises which will be suggested depending upon improvement.

No need of laser.
As you said you tried physiotherapy for twice.
You need physiotherapy session machine therapy like tens, ift , electric machine therapy. atleast for 3-4 weeks.
After that need to be doing exercises regularly.
Then slowly slowly you will see results.
You need be patience. And keep doing exercises and session properly and complete the treatment . Do not stop inbetween. Or else pain will keep coming back. If you want to see permanent results then need to complete session and stop with physiotherapist advice.
