Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Myofascial pain syndrome is a chronic, localized form of muscle pain. The pain arises from “taut” bands in muscle that are called “trigger points.” The trigger points in the muscle are painful when touched. Myofascial pain caused by trigger points has been linked to many types of pain, including headaches, jaw pain, neck pain, low back pain, pelvic pain, and arm and leg pain.
