If your muscles feel stiff and painful when pressed, it could be because of 'this'.

Myofascial Pain Syndrome: Causes, Symptoms, and Effective Treatment

Hello, this is J&J Therapy. Today, we'll delve into 'Myofascial Pain Syndrome', a condition many people experience but often overlook.

What is Myofascial Pain Syndrome?

Myofascial Pain Syndrome is a condition that occurs when there's damage to the fascia, a thin membrane that wraps around our muscles. It can be caused by excessive exercise or prolonged poor posture, leading to muscle stiffness and pain.

Key Symptoms

1. Muscle stiffness and knots

2. Pain when pressing on muscles

3. Referred pain (pain that spreads to other areas when a specific point is pressed)

4. Limited muscle movement

5. Headaches or arm numbness (in severe cases)

Progression of Myofascial Pain Syndrome

If myofascial pain persists, muscles become stiff and knotted more frequently and quickly. If this condition continues for a long time, it can lead to:

- Decreased muscle flexibility

- Limited joint movement

- Secondary pain due to compensatory action of other muscles

Therefore, prompt treatment is necessary if these symptoms appear.
