Abstract: | Trigger-point injection with a mixture of commercially available 1% lidocaine in sterile distilled water at a ratio of 1:3 compared with 1% lidocaine alone resulted in better efficacy and less injection pain. This simple procedure may be suitable for treatments of a wide range of myofascial pain syndromes. |
