متن کاملThe Effect of Intramuscular Stimulation on Otalgia due to Myofascial Pain Syndrome by Contraction of Trapezius Muscle
There are several causes of otalgia, specifically primary otalgia, which originates inside the ear, and referred otalgia, which originates outside the ear. In a rare case, otalgia may result from myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) due to a contraction of cervical muscles. The author of this study reports a case in which otalgia caused by MPS due to contraction of the trapezius muscle was treated wi...

The model explains how pain can occur and persist without any evidence of injury or inflammat...
