Pelvic Floor Dysfunction!
Myofascial Pain & Trigger Points Common in IC Patients
A study from the University of South Florida has shed light on the incidence of painful pelvic floor trigger points in diagnosed IC patients. A retrospective chart review was performed on 186 patients with a diagnosis of IC from April 2007 to December 2008. Myofascial pain was demonstrated in 78.3% of IC patients with at least one myofascial trigger point, and 67.9% of patients had numerous areas of trigger points. These findings reinforce the notion that IC patients should also be assessed for pelvic floor dysfunction and the presence of painful muscle trigger points and be referred for treatment, as needed.
