Brief Answer:
What type of myofasciitis are we talking about?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

Myofasciitis is an inflammation of the muscles. The causes are varied and treatment depends on the cause. If there is an infection and pus collection, surgery drainage and antibiotics would be the immediate goal of treatment to control fro the infection. This would be followed by rehabilitation to make sure that you regain full functionality of your muscles. If it is not caused by an infection, treatment consists mainly in controlling the pain and treating the cause of the inflammation. If there is more specific information you would like to communicate, please let me know and I will get back to you with more insights.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
