Myofascial Trigger Points and Their Relationship to Headache Clinical Parameters in Chronic Tension‐Type Headache
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To assess the presence of trigger points (TrPs) in several head and neck muscles in subjects with chronic tension-type headache (CTTH) and in healthy subjects; and to evaluate the relationship of these TrPs with forward head posture (FHP), headache intensity, duration, and frequency.
BACKGROUND: Tension-type headache (TTH) is a headache in which myofascial TrPs in head and neck muscles might play an important etiologic role.
DESIGN: A blinded, controlled, pilot study.
METHODS: ...

Trigger Points in the Suboccipital Muscles and Forward Head Posture in Tension‐Type Headache
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To assess the presence of trigger points (TrPs) in the suboccipital muscles and forward head posture (FHP) in subjects with chronic tension-type headache (CTTH) and in healthy subjects, and to evaluate the relationship of TrPs and FHP with headache intensity, duration, and frequency.
BACKGROUND: Tension-type headache (TTH) is a prototypical headache in which myofascial TrPs in the cervical and pericranial musculature can play an important role.
DESIGN: A blinded, controlled ...

Referred Pain From the Trochlear Region in Tension‐Type Headache: A Myofascial Trigger Point From the Superior Oblique Muscle
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND: Tension-type headache (TTH) is a prototypical headache in which myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) can play an important role. To our knowledge, MTrPs in the muscle tissues of the trochlear region, ie, the superior oblique muscle (SOM), have not been previously mentioned, and a referred pain pattern from this region has never been reported.
OBJECTIVE: To describe the referred pain from the trochlear area based on the examination of MTrPs in the SOM in patients with episodic ...

BACKGROUND: Pain after breast cancer therapy is a recognized complication found to have an adverse impact on patient's quality of life, increasing psychosocial distress. In recent years, case reports about myofascial pain syndrome are emerging in thoracic surgery as a cause of postsurgery pain. Myofascial pain syndrome is a regional pain syndrome characterized by myofascial trigger points in palpable taut bands of skeletal muscle that refers pain a distance, and that can cause distant ...

Referred Pain Elicited by Manual Exploration of the Lateral Rectus Muscle in Chronic Tension‐Type Headache
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the presence of referred pain elicited by manual examination of the lateral rectus muscle in patients with chronic tension-type headache (CTTH).
DESIGN: A case-control blinded study.
SETTING: It has been found previously that the manual examination of the superior oblique muscle can elicit referred pain to the head in some patients with migraine or tension-type headache. However, a referred pain from other extraocular muscles has not been investigated.
METHODS: ...

The comparative burden of mild, moderate and severe Fibromyalgia: results from a cross-sectional survey in the United States
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND: Fibromyalgia (FM) is characterized by chronic, widespread pain, fatigue, and other symptoms; yet few studies have comprehensively assessed its humanistic burden. This observational study evaluates the impact of FM severity on patients' symptoms, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and productivity in the United States.
METHODS: 203 FM subjects were recruited from 20 physician offices. Subjects completed a questionnaire including the EuroQol 5D (EQ-5D), Fibromyalgia Impact ...

The myofascial trigger point (MTrP) is the hallmark physical finding of the myofascial pain syndrome (MPS). The MTrP itself is characterized by distinctive physical features that include a tender point in a taut band of muscle, a local twitch response (LTR) to mechanical stimulation, a pain referral pattern characteristic of trigger points of specific areas in each muscle, and the reproduction of the patient's usual pain. No prior study has demonstrated that these physical features are ...

OBJECTIVE: Some patients with trochlear disorders have been found to suffer from concurrent migraine. However, a trochlear examination is not systematically done in patients with migraine. Moreover, a search for myofascial trigger points in the superior oblique muscle has never been reported in these patients.
METHODS: The trochlear region was examined in 20 participants with strictly unilateral migraine without side-shift and in 20 controls. Referred pain elicited by different maneuvers ...

Trigger Point Injections for Chronic Non‐Malignant Musculoskeletal Pain: A Systematic Review
[ PUBLICATION ]
OBJECTIVE: This systematic review assessed the available published evidence on the efficacy and safety of using trigger point injection (TPI) to treat patients with chronic non-malignant musculoskeletal pain that had persisted for at least 3 months.
METHODS: All published systematic reviews or randomized controlled trials detailing the use of TPI in patients with chronic, non-malignant musculoskeletal pain (persisting for >3 months) were identified by systematically searching literature ...

This is a review of literature relevant to the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome by botulinum injections. The objective is to critically review the studies to see if they are appropriately designed, conducted, and interpreted to provide guidance in the management of myofascial pain. The intent is to better understand the mixed results that these studies have provided. A search was made utilizing PubMed for literature relevant to the use of botulinum toxin in the treatment of ...

Post-needling soreness after myofascial trigger point dry needling: Current status and future research
[ PUBLICATION ]
Post-dry needling soreness is a common complication of myofascial trigger point (MTrP) dry needling treatment. The prevention, management and relevance of this complication remain uncertain. This paper examines the current state of knowledge and suggests directions for further studies in this area. MTrPs are hypersensitive nodules in skeletal muscles' taut bands, present in several pain conditions. Dry needling has been recommended for relieving MTrP pain. MTrP dry needling procedures ...

Myofascial pain is one of the most common causes of pain. The diagnosis of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is made by muscle palpation. The source of the pain in MPS is the myofascial trigger point, a very localized region of tender, contracted muscle that is readily identified by palpation. The trigger point has well-described electrophysiologic properties and is associated with a derangement of the local biochemical milieu of the muscle. A proper diagnosis of MPS includes evaluation of ...

Objective: To present an approach to the management of the Myofascial Pain Syndrome [MPS] based on clinical experience, addressing the problems posed by the specific nature of primary myofascial trigger point pain, and the problem of chronic myofascial pain. Results: Specific trigger point therapy is designed to inactivate the myofascial trigger point by means of manual techniques, intermittent cold and stretch, and invasive trigger point needling or injection with a local anesthetic. ...

Myofascial pain syndromes of the upper extremity are common causes of pain that may follow trauma and are associated with acute or chronic musculoskeletal stress. The syndromes are characterized by the presence of the myofascial trigger point, a physical finding that is reliably identified by palpation. Local and referred pain are hallmarks of the syndrome, and the referred pain patterns may mimic such conditions as radiculopathy and nerve entrapment syndromes. Treatment is directed ...
