It can appear in any body part. Characteristic features of myofascial trigger points include: focal point tenderness, reproduction of pain upon trigger point palpation, hardening of the muscle upon trigger point palpation, pseudo-weakness of the involved muscle, referred pain, and limited range of motion following approximately 5 seconds of sustained trigger point pressure. myofascial_pain_syndrome.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:58by 127.0.0.1
