Trigger Points
A myofascial trigger point is a palpable nodule, which is a localized area of extreme tenderness found within a muscle. Trigger points are referred to as “active” when they cause noticeable pain without provocation, while “latent” trigger points elicit pain only when manipulated by your physiotherapist. A heightened trigger point state of muscle activity that results in a small sustained muscle contraction will cause the area tender, it may also sometimes cause pain over a large area and affecting your daily functional activities. After a prolonged period of time, a taut band develops that will not relax volitionally.
