  1. CAN TRIGGER POINT INJECTION CAUSE MORE PAIN? https://specialtycareclinics.com/

  2. All of the body’s muscles are connected by the fascial system, which is a webbed, lubricating system. Our interior organs and muscles are enclosed, divided, stabilized, and attached by this connective tissue. Trigger points are considered to be hyperirritable spots where skeletal muscle bands are taut. These bands stretch out due to repetitive motions or heavy lifting. The fascia surrounding the muscles where the trigger point is located also becomes too tight when these muscle bands do. As a result, the patient may have severe discomfort.

  3. WHAT HAPPENS IF TRIGGER POINTS ARE NOT TREATED? The muscle will essentially shut off or severely limit the blood supply to that region of the muscle if the trigger point is not treated. This may cause pain as the nerve gets pinched. In addition, a number of other symptoms, including fatigue, may develop as a result of the excess metabolic waste trapped in the taut muscular band that cannot pass via the lymphatic system. 1 4

  4. HOW DO TRIGGER POINT INJECTIONS RELIEVE PAIN? The injection itself contains a tiny amount of anesthetic and steroid, which serves to reduce the pain linked with the trigger. Multiple trigger points can be treated in the same session.

  5. WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR TRIGGER POINT INJECTIONS? Patients must have previously tried a mechanical therapy or massage that was considered ineffective. Avoid trigger point injections if you have a bleeding disorder, those on anticoagulation treatment, if you are pregnant or are at high risk of infection.

  6. TRIGGER POINT INJECTIONS AND CHRONIC PAIN If you are suffering from chronic pain, you may have one or more trigger points throughout the body. The trigger points in your body can be eliminated with trigger point injections.
