Direct compression or muscle contraction can elicit jump sign, local tenderness, local twitch response and referred pain which usually responds with a pain pattern distant from the spot [1] [2] [3] [4] .

Pressure on these areas, called trigger points, causes pain. Sometimes, the pain is felt in other parts of the body. This is called referred pain. The pain often is felt as shoulder pain, back pai...
Symptoms of myofascial pain syndrome may include: 1. Deep, aching pain in a muscle. 2. Pain that doesn't go away or gets worse. 3. A tender knot in a muscle. 4. Trouble sleeping due to pain. 5. A general feeling of being not well, called malaise. 6. Tiredness.
The exact cause of myofascial pain syndrome is not known. Areas of tight muscle fibers, called trigger points, form in muscles. Too much use of the muscles, most often with poor form, injury to the muscle and mental stress likely help cause trigger points.
In myofascial pain syndrome, something such as muscle tightness sets off trigger points in the muscles. Factors that may increase the risk of muscle trigger points include: 1. Muscle injury.A muscle injury or ongoing muscle stress may lead to the forming of trigger points. For instance, a spot in or near a strained muscle may become a trigger point...
Complications linked to myofascial pain syndrome include: 1. Sleep problems.Symptoms of myofascial pain syndrome may make it hard to sleep. It might be hard to find a good sleep position. And if you move while sleeping, you might hit a trigger point and awaken. 2. Fibromyalgia. Some research suggests that myofascial pain syndrome may lead to fibrom...
