Trigger points:
Trigger points are often confused with tender points. It is one of the official criteria for a diagnosis of fibromyalgia. There are clear guidelines for distinguishing trigger points from tender points. They are
1. A trigger point needs firm pressure to draw pain, whereas a tender point is so painful it can hardly be touched.
2. Tender points cause only local pain. They do not refer pain to other sites as trigger points do.
3. Trigger points are found inevitable only in certain places and tender points can occur anywhere and everywhere.
Actual fibromyalgia sufferers usually have both types of points. Their states of pain can be improved markedly by careful treatment of their trigger points. Unfortunately, fibromyalgia tender points still avoid an adequate explanation or reliable treatment.
Self-treatment:
Tender points should be at the top of the list during any examination for fibromyalgia and chronic pain. When healthcare practitioners have had sufficient training and experience, tender points are easy to locate and treat. In fact, there are ways to treat them yourself, safely, conveniently and without cost. Palpation of the tender point will obtain pain directly over the affected area and cause radiation of pain toward a zone of reference and a local twitch response. Various modalities like the spray and stretch technique, ultrasonography, manipulative therapy and injection are used to inactivate tender points.
