Muscle pain or pain and inflammation in the soft tissues of the body is known as myofascial pain.  It can strike for various reasons and many people will experience myofascial pain after a serious injury or accident.  You could be eligible for financial compensation if your injury was due to another person’s negligence or lack of care.

Causes of Myofascial Pain

Often caused by a serious injury or excessive strain on a specific muscle from repetitive activity over a long period of time, myofascial pain can be associated as a worker’s compensation issue or work-related lawsuit.  Other types of myofascial lawsuits include:

• Motor vehicle accidents
• Premise liability
• slip and fall accidents
• spinal injuries
• workplace related injuries
• carpel tunnel syndrome

The back, neck, shoulder, legs, pelvis and arms are the most common areas to experience myofascial pain.  It is a deep ache that can worsen in specific situations and you can also experience muscle and joint stiffness, in addition to tension or a tight spot in the muscle where the pain is.  The pain can come and go or it can be chronic.
