Trigger Point Injections (TPI)

Trigger Point Injections (TPI)

Trigger Point Injections (TPI) are a highly effective treatment option for patients suffering from chronic muscle pain caused by trigger points—tight knots or lumps of muscle that form when muscles do not relax. These painful areas can often be felt beneath the skin and may irritate surrounding nerves, causing pain that can radiate to other parts of the body.

Procedure Overview

The procedure involves inserting a small needle directly into the trigger point. The injection may contain a local anesthetic, saline, or a corticosteroid, depending on the specific needs of the patient. This injection works by making the trigger point inactive, which helps relieve pain and discomfort in the affected muscle.

The process is quick, taking only a few minutes, and many patients experience significant pain relief shortly after the procedure. Trigger Point Injections are a minimally invasive solution that can greatly reduce chronic muscle pain and improve overall mobility.

At Montgomery Pain Institute, we offer trigger point injections as part of our comprehensive approach to managing muscle pain and improving quality of life for our patients.
