What Causes Painful Knots In Muscles All Over The Body?
I am 35 and have worsening painful knots all over my muscles- in my neck, forearms, thighs, hamstrings, glutes,calves and feet. I want to know what is causing it and why pain meds, PT, massage and trigger point injections can t handle it! The knots do not go away once they form. No obvious weakness or numbness. I get frequent migraines too.
