The trapezius muscle is sore, what may be the reason?
The common clinical causes of trapezius pain are as follows:

Improper posture, such as bowing your head or twisting your neck for a long time, can cause continuous contraction of trapezius muscle, causing local accumulation of metabolic wastes such as lactic acid and causing pain symptoms. At this time, patients can improve blood circulation through appropriate activities, neck muscle massage and physical therapy. If necessary, you can use hot compress, massage and other methods. Promote the rapid absorption of lactic acid metabolic waste and improve the pain symptoms of trapezius muscle.

Patients who are accidentally hit by others can cause soft tissue injury of trapezius muscle with mild hematoma. At this time, there will be obvious swelling and pain, and local ice compress is needed to reduce tissue exudation. Combined with drugs such as Huoxue Huayu ointment, voltarin external application and oral painkillers. In patients with mild symptoms, trapezius pain can be completely relieved in 3-5 days.

Because of the large range of motion, the patient can pull the trapezius muscle formed by local hematoma, and the patient will have obvious pain and limited neck movement. At this time, within 24-48 hours after injury, local ice can be applied to avoid the progressive increase of hematoma. After 48 hours, acupoint massage, acupuncture, infrared physiotherapy, hot towel wet compress and other methods can be used to improve the blood circulation of the injured part and promote the rapid absorption of hematoma.

Patients with cervical spondylosis can cause radiation pain of trapezius muscle because the protruding cervical intervertebral disc compresses peripheral nerves and blood vessels. Patients can avoid lowering their heads for a long time or keeping a posture unchanged by properly moving the cervical vertebrae, thus alleviating the symptoms of oblique pain caused by cervical vertebrae. Patients with severe symptoms need surgery to relieve the pain of trapezius muscle.

The pain of trapezius muscle is generally caused by local strain, cold and sports injury. , leading to increased aseptic inflammation and exudation of trapezius muscle, leading to local pain. Therefore, the way of symptomatic treatment, first of all, is to limit the movement of trapezius muscle again, which can prevent trapezius muscle from being pulled again. Secondly, we can give a warm towel to the trapezius muscle for hot compress treatment, or stick a plaster with the function of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, such as promoting blood circulation and relieving pain, or apply some Chinese patent medicines with the function of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, such as safflower oil and bonesetting water. These measures can obviously improve the blood circulation of trapezius muscle, thus effectively alleviating the symptoms of local soreness. For patients with obvious pain, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as Fenbid and celebrex Capsule, can be taken orally to relieve the symptoms quickly by relieving aseptic inflammation at the sore part of trapezius muscle.
