i have damaged my trapezium muscle im y kneck what is the physiotherapy for it?

Answer 1

Initially, you need to calm down the pain and swelling - use ice for 10 mins every hour. Take OTC anti-inflamms to help decrease the swelling.

Ask your doctor for a referal to a good physical therapist. We can use modalities such as ultrasound and electrical stimulation to help calm everything down. Personally, I use needle-less acupuncture and Kinesio Tape to help calm things down very quickly - there are acupressure points on your fingers that work very effectively to help calm down the area (Li1, Si1, Tw3, Li4 - look these up for an explanation).

Once the initial pain and discomfort is easing off, stretching and strengthening take over. These can only be determined by your physical therapist and the right exercises need to be prescribed; the wrong exercise will make it worse.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Trapezius pulls the shoulder blade (Scapula )towards midline. Massage, fomentations and analgesics work for immediate recovery.As a long term physiotherapy two muscles on either side (Supraspinatus and Infraspinatus)nearly compensate for trapezius.
Brace both shoulder blades back 20 times or more in the morning afternoon and evening.

Answer 3

treatment focuses on helping to reduce pain, maintain or improve joint movement, and minimize disability. Your doctor may recommend a combination of treatments, including self-care measures, activity modification, splints, medications and physical therapy. In early stages, nonsurgical treatments are usually effective. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary.
