TRIGGER POINT EXCISION - NEW TREATMENT PROVIDES PAIN RELEASE FOR YEARS Trigger points are local, tender, and hyperirritable spots located next to or within the skeletal muscle. Trigger points are commonly associated with acute trauma, such as Motor Vehicle accidents, or chronic musculoskeletal conditions. Management of trigger points is a challenging problem. There is limited research on the etiology of trigger points. The treatment is usually limited to attempts to reduce stress, overuse, anti-inflammatory medications, muscle relaxants, antidepressants, neuroleptics, acupuncture, osteopathic manipulations, massage, heat and cold applications, ultrasound, nerve stimulators, dry needling, and trigger point Trigger Point Excision is a new and most effective treatment! Dr. Volshteyn's approach adds an additional minimally invasive way to manage trigger points - by excising diseased fascia through a small, about 1-inch, incision. The trigger point is identified with manual examination and ultrasound and is tagged and internally marked. Most patients experience significant improvement in trigger point symptoms. The trigger point pain is temporarily replaced with usual postsurgical pain, which is much different than trigger point pain. Give Atlantic Surgical Associates' office a call to schedule an evaluation for a minimally invasive trigger point excision procedure. Find Out More At https://www.atlanticsurgic alassociates.com
