MYOFASCIAL TRIGGER POINT INJECTIONS

Myofascial pain typically manifests as muscle pain, tenderness, or spasms. Myofascial trigger point injection treatment focuses on the specific areas of pain by injecting medication directly into the trigger point. These areas are usually tender and painful when pressed, and the treatment can provide significant pain relief. At Hope Neurological & Medical Services, our clinic offers various treatment plans to help manage your trigger point pain. Call us at (404) 631-6156 to schedule an appointment. .

WHAT IS A TRIGGER POINT (TRP)?

A trigger point (TrP) is a small contracture within the muscle, a localized area where muscle tissue is starved of oxygen, which generally causes pain and dysfunction. Trigger points can form when a muscle is held in a static position for too long (such as sitting or using a computer/phone) or is over-stressed through exercise or postural imbalances. Trigger points are difficult to alleviate through stretching and massage alone.
