Trigger Point Injections

Overview

Trigger point injections are used to treat painful areas of tight, contracted muscles, commonly called trigger points. These areas can cause localized pain, muscle stiffness, tenderness, and sometimes pain that radiates to other areas of the body. Trigger points may develop from muscle strain, repetitive movements, poor posture, stress, or injury.

A trigger point injection delivers a small amount of medication, typically a local anesthetic, directly into the affected muscle to help relax the muscle, reduce discomfort, and improve mobility. This treatment may provide relief when muscle pain has not improved with other conservative therapies.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING THE PROCEDURE

Trigger point injections are performed in the office and generally take only a few minutes. Your provider will identify the affected muscles and locate the trigger points through a physical examination. The area is cleaned, and a small needle is used to inject medication directly into the targeted muscle.

The environment was relaxed, pleasant, and professional…

Been going to Spine and Joint for the last few years and my experiences have been positive. Recently had a procedure done and the environment was relaxed, pleasant, and professional. This helps ease some of the stress and edginess that comes with most medical procedures. Thank you S&J.
