Myofascial pelvic pain (MFPP) is a major component of chronic pelvic pain (CPP) and often is not properly identified by health care providers. The hallmark diagnostic indicator of MFPP is myofascial trigger points in the pelvic floor musculature that refer pain to adjacent sites. Effective treatments are available to reduce MFPP, including myofascial trigger point release, biofeedback, and electrical stimulation. An interdisciplinary team is essential for identifying and successfully treating MFPP.
肌筋膜性骨盆疼痛(MFPP)是慢性骨盆疼痛(CPP)的主要组成部分,而医疗服务提供者常常未能对其进行正确诊断。MFPP的标志性诊断指标是盆底肌肉组织中的肌筋膜触发点,这些触发点会将疼痛传导至邻近部位。目前已有有效的治疗方法来减轻MFPP,包括肌筋膜触发点松解、生物反馈和电刺激。一个跨学科团队对于识别和成功治疗MFPP至关重要。
