Pathophysiological substantiation of the complex approach to rehabilitation of patients with myofascial pain syndrome of the neck region

Abstract

Myofascial pain syndromes are a widespread pathology, which is a condition that is characterized by local muscle stiffness and the formation of trigger points in them. The pathophysiology of myofascial pain syndromes is not fully understood. Studies indicate the role of dysfunction of the end plate of the muscle, impaired proprioreception and sensomotor control, central sensitization. The review presents a modern view of approaches to the treatment of myofasial pain syndrome of the neck region, based on an understanding of its pathophysiology.
