Myofascial Pain Syndrome

2003
Chronic and disabling pains are commonly of musculoskeletal origin. These may arise from a pathologic process involving the joints, muscles, or their associated connective tissues. When pain arises from one or more joints and can be confirmed by objective signs of localized inflammation and appropriate imaging studies, the diagnosis of arthritis can be

Diagnosis of Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2014
Myofascial pain is one of the most common causes of pain. The diagnosis of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is made by muscle palpation. The source of the pain in MPS is the myofascial trigger point, a very localized region of tender, contracted muscle that is readily identified by palpation.

Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Der Internist, 2006
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.

Urologic myofascial pain syndromes

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2004
Treatment of pain of urogenital origin, chronic pelvic pain syndrome, can be frustrating for patients and physicians. The usual approaches do not always produce the desired results. Visceral pain from pelvic organs and myofascial pain from muscle trigger points share common characteristics.

Treatment of myofascial pain syndrome

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2006
Myofascial 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 ...

Myofascial Pain Syndrome

2018
Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is a pain condition that may be acute, but it is most commonly chronic. MPS is often associated with myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) in muscle and connective tissue including fascia. Active MTrPs are one of the major peripheral pain generators for musculoskeletal pain conditions.

The neurophysiology of myofascial pain syndrome

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2001
This 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.
