Trigger points are known as tender nodes of degenerated muscle tissue causing local and radiating pain that may be bound to a single muscle or to several muscle groups. Their structure consists of small-circumscribed hyperirritable foci in muscles and fascia, often found within a firm or taut band of skeletal muscles. Trigger points may also occur in ligaments, tendons, joint capsule, skin, and periosteum. When palpating a trigger point, a local or referred pain pattern may be elicited causing a
