— What it is
Trigger Point Injections
After a collision, muscles may remain tight and painful. A trigger point is a tight, irritable band inside a muscle that refuses to let go. It can be tender to touch, refer pain to other areas, and keep an entire region — neck, shoulders, upper back — locked in tension. A trigger point injection interrupts that cycle directly at the knot.
- A thin needle is placed into the taut band of muscle and a small amount of local anesthetic (or saline) is injected.
- The needle itself helps disrupt the contracted fibers while the anesthetic reduces local pain signaling.
- Several trigger points can often be treated in one short visit.
- Relief is frequently noticed quickly, sometimes during the visit itself.
— Who it helps
After a car accident, this may be right for you if
You have tender, rope-like knots in your neck, shoulders, or back.
Pressing on one spot reproduces pain that spreads elsewhere.
Tension headaches follow neck and shoulder tightness.
Muscle tension began or worsened after a car accident.
Massage and stretching help only briefly.
