What are Trigger Point Injections in Phoenix?

Trigger point injections in Phoenix focus on tight, painful muscle spots called trigger points. These spots can cause pain and stiffness that make it hard to move. Pain management doctors use a small needle to put medicine, like a numbing medicine or steroid, right into the muscle knot. This helps the muscles relax and ease the pain.

How Trigger Point Injections Help Patients

Trigger point injections in Phoenix work by relaxing tight muscle knots and stopping pain signals. The injection typically contains a local anesthetic to numb the area and sometimes a small amount of steroid to reduce inflammation. Here’s how the procedure works:

  1. First, the doctor cleans the skin over the muscle knot.
  2. Then, a small needle is carefully inserted into the tight muscle spot.
  3. Using gentle pressure, the pain management doctor injects the medicine right into the trigger point.
  4. The medicine helps numb the area and reduce inflammation, loosening the muscle.
  5. After the injection, doctors may gently massage the area to help spread the medicine.
  6. The whole process is quick and usually causes only mild discomfort.

Many patients feel pain relief a little bit after the injection, but some notice improvement over several days. These injections can be combined with physical therapy and other treatments to help you heal faster.
