NUTRITIONAL SUPPORTS IN MYOFASCIAL PAIN SYNDROME
Abstract
Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is a common chronic musculoskeletal disorder characterized by trigger points in muscles and fascia, leading to pain, functional limitation, and impaired quality of life. Conventional treatments—including pharmacologic agents, physical therapy modalities, manual ther-apy, and trigger point injections—often provide only partial and temporary relief. This has increased interest in adjunctive strategies targeting inflammation, oxidative stress, and neuromuscular dysfunc-tion, among which nutritional approaches are gaining attention.
