Trigger Point

What Trigger Points Feels Like?

Trigger points feel like tight, dense areas, or “knots” within a muscle. In a trigger point, the muscle tissue has involuntarily sustained a contraction that has caused it to tighten. Trigger points can be found in non-contractile tissues as well, such as scar tissue, ligaments, and tendons, and they can produce back, neck, or jaw pain. Trigger points are occasionally diagnosed incorrectly as arthritis, tendonitis, bursitis, or tennis elbow.
