Although the use of botulinum toxin has been recommended for the management of myofascial pain and dysfunction, the precise mechanism of its action remains undetermined and studies on its effectiveness are equivocal. Moreover, even if such treatment may temporarily relieve the symptoms, it does not address the cause of the problem. Also, its use is not free of potential complications. On this basis, botulinum toxin does not seem to be a logical treatment of myofascial pain and dysfunction.
尽管肉毒杆菌毒素已被推荐用于治疗肌筋膜疼痛和功能障碍，但其确切作用机制仍未明确，关于其有效性的研究也存在争议。此外，即使这种治疗可能暂时缓解症状，但它并未解决问题的根源。而且，其使用并非没有潜在并发症。基于此，肉毒杆菌毒素似乎并非治疗肌筋膜疼痛和功能障碍的合理选择。
