Neck Pain

Neck pain is a common problem often related to recent injury, treatments often include physical therapy medical management and or injection therapy. The issue with recent trauma to the neck is that there are many sheets of muscle in the neck region and injury to those muscles can cause trigger points in the muscle. These trigger points are nothing more than bruised many muscle that when contracted with normal neck movement can cause pain. The rationale for trigger point injections is to deliver medicine to the bruised muscle to hasten recovery.
