Abstract

Myofascial pain (MFP) is the most frequent cause of chronic pain of various localizations including back pain, headaches and cervical pain. Cervicogenic MFP is an important component of the office syndrome. Understanding of causes, diagnostics and treatment of MFP will help to prevent excessive negative impact of chronic pain on public health. Local use of Voltaren Emulgel may result in quick reduction of acute MFP after use in monotherapy. It also can be used as an important complementation to multimodal therapy in recurrent and chronic forms of myofascial pain syndromes.
