Trigger points are unwelcome guests in your body. Trigger points are tight areas of muscle that are painful to the touch. The pain is not isolated to the trigger point. It also may radiate, or trigger, pain in nearby areas or extremities. For example, a trigger point in your lower back may create pain that seizes your hip or creates pressure or pain in your legs.
A common occurrence in conditions such as fibromyalgia, trigger points are a source of great discomfort. When left untreated, trigger points typically do not go away by themselves. Plus, you can have more than one at a time which creates pain and pressure throughout your body. Call now for an appointment!
