What are Trigger Point Injections?
Trigger point injections are a treatment used to relieve pain caused by tight knots of muscle, also known as trigger points. These injections deliver medication directly into the affected area, helping to relax the muscle, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain. This treatment is particularly effective for patients experiencing chronic muscle pain that hasn't responded to other therapies.
