Muscle Pain & Myofascial Pain Syndrome
Advanced diagnosis and treatment for Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MPS), trigger point pain, and chronic neck & upper back muscle pain at Noida Pain Management Clinic.
A lot of patients having pain in their Neck & Upper back muscles actually have an underlying muscle injury which causes severe pain on pressing the affected muscle. This is what is called as Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MPS). So many times, it is diagnosed as Cervical pain/Fibromyalgia and even sometimes as if the patient has some psychogenic issues.
These patients do have Trigger Points which are points of tight muscle fibres in muscles. These are especially common in people who are overusing their muscles with poor posture (IT people, Bank officials, teachers etc.). Also people having chronic stress tend to develop these trigger points.
