The myofascial pain syndrome is an autonomous clinical picture with well-defined clinical and morphological features. The myofascial pain is initiated through trigger points in the musculature which induce a typical referred pain into a specific body region typical for each muscle.

Myofascial pain-dysfunction syndrome
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1978Of the 127 patients treated for MPDS over a 30 month period, only six patients did not make at least a 90% recovery within 3 to 4 months. In most instances a spectacular degree of success was achieved within 2 to 3 weeks. Ten percent of the patients who were treated had had symptoms of the MPDS for a period longer than 5 years.

Treatment of myofascial pain syndrome
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2006Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is caused by myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) located within taut bands of skeletal muscle fibers. Treating the underlying etiologic lesion responsible for MTrP activation is the most important strategy in MPS therapy. If the underlying pathology is not given the appropriate treatment, the MTrP cannot be completely and ...

Regional Myofascial Pain Syndromes
Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1989MPS are regional pain syndromes characterized by a tender trigger point in muscle (sometimes with an accompanying palpable abnormality in consistency) producing pain in a characteristic reference zone. There is abundant evidence supporting MPS as an important cause of regional musculoskeletal pain, and a small but growing body of quantitative clinical ...

Myofascial pain syndromes and their evaluation
Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2007Myofascial pain refers to a specific form of soft-tissue rheumatism that results from irritable foci (trigger points) within skeletal muscles and their ligamentous junctions. It must be distinguished from bursitis, tendonitis, hypermobility syndromes, fibromyalgia and fasciitis.

The neurophysiology of myofascial pain syndrome
Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2001This article discusses the neurophysiology of myofascial pain syndrome. The local twitch response is a characteristic finding of this condition; it is activated by snapping palpation, pressure, or needle insertion at the trigger point. It is manifested by a burst of activity in the muscle band that contains the activated trigger point.

Abstract Somatic pain is likely to be the most prevalent cause of pain in the general population—it is certainly a common reason for extended absence from work. The prime environmental aetiological factors are probably degeneration and abuse of the musculoskeletal system, and it should be no surprise that the areas which suffer most are ...
