The functional characteristics of upper limb muscles in patients with humeroscapular periarthrosis during their treatment including the myofascial pain syndrome

The results of complex clinical-and-neurophysiologic examination and conservative treatment of 60 patients with humeroscapular periarthrosis are given. The typical localization of active trigger points is revealed and the system of conservative stopping of the myofascial pain dysfunctional syndrome in the shoulder zone is worked out. The obtained results of treatment of patients with humeroscapular periarthrosis give evidence of the fact that using the system of inactivation of active trigger points allows to decrease to a great extent or completely stop pain sensations within rather a short period of time, to restore the range of movements in the shoulder and the function of the muscles of the limb involved and contralateral one completely or substantially.
