Myofascial Pain Disorder

Myofascial Pain Disorder

Located deep within every bone is delicate tissue that if damaged can result in a “trigger point” for myofascial pain disorder, a chronic condition where a patient suffers from muscle pain due to muscle tissue inflammation. Often times when pressure is applied to a trigger point, it results in pain elsewhere in the body, making the disorder difficult to diagnose.

What Causes Myofascial Pain Disorder?

Most commonly, myofascial pain disorder stems from muscle injury, a torn ligament, damaged tendon, or excessive strain on a muscle group. Other common causes include:

  • Arthritis
  • An unused muscle in an unnatural position, such as an arm in a sling
  • Prolonged poor posture
  • An intervertebral disc injury
