A muscle knot happens when a muscle contracts without releasing. This causes the individual a good amount of pain and discomfort. Sometimes a muscle knot follows a muscle spasm. Muscles normally spend time being active and then relaxing. So a muscle knot would be a muscle that becomes active and then stays that way.

 

 

 

Effects of Untreated Muscle Knots

If a muscle knot is left untreated it can affect a person’s ability to work. Income can be lost if work has to be missed. A person may not even be able to walk if the knot occurs in the one of their legs. Pain from the muscle knot can make an individual grouchy and impatient with family and friends. Finally, muscle knots can keep a person from getting their eight hours of sleep per night.


 

 

Warning: Muscle knot pain can last for days and sometimes almost two weeks. The pain will be intense at first and decrease over time.


If you experience any redness or discoloration of the skin, or swelling around the painful area then you need to seek medical attention right away. You may have something more serious than a muscle knot.
