Trigger Points
Trigger Points are very painful knots that can be found in the body's muscles. These acute points send sharp pains to the area around the knot. The pain can also be sent to other areas of the body, not just the location of the Trigger Point. This is known as referred pain. Trigger Point pain is usually found in the neck, legs, arms and lower back areas of the body. Treatment for this condition is through an injection of anesthetic, which relieves the pain and renders the point inactive.
