Trigger point: If your pain is well localized to a confined area, it may be just a trigger point, or a localized area of soft tissue inflammation. Often there is no explanation for why these occur. Treatment options include massage/physical therapy, anti-inflammatory meds such as Ibuprofen or naproxyn, and localized steroid injections.
