Results of the special research conducted by us on the study of the mechanism of action and efficacy of blockades show that particularly miofascial trigger points (MTP) are the main sources of craniomandibular pains, and that injection of NSAID in МТP is an effective and safe method of arresting pain in case of miofascial pain syndrome. |
