Muscle pain has now become the most common issue nowadays in our day-to-day life. As the human body has over 700 muscles, different ages people get susceptible muscle pain in their respective body parts. It is also referred to as myalgia and caused by run rioting the forces. The muscle pain, which is unrelated to muscle activity, often needs medical attention, especially physiotherapy treatments.
We have shared details about muscle pain, causes, and treatment in this post to help you recover quickly.
Muscle pain is best treated at home by self-care with proper guidance. The effective self-care method to treat muscle pain includes:
Rest- Rest is recommended for the early recovery phase as, in some cases, mobility causes more damage to muscle pain. By avoiding the activities that cause pain, discomfort, or swelling is beneficial from normal muscle pain.
Icing the affected areas - Ice therapy in the form of an ice pack (wrapped in a cloth) continues for the first two to three days as soon as possible after sustaining muscle pain (depending upon the harshness). Ice is used on the injury's dorsal end to decrease the swelling by managing the inflammation, which eventually alleviates pain. If you use the Ice application repeatedly, but not more than 15 minutes in one go. Moving the ice often, not allowing it to sit in one spot, is the key. Performing ice therapy in the affected area is a harmless and effective way as skin damage is negligible to treat muscle pain.
Applying anti-inflammatory gels and rubs- Applying anti-inflammatory gels and rubs with ibuprofen, salicylates as their chemical components to the ached muscles treat the body's inflammation, which reduces pain and encourages the healing process.
Dry Needling Therapy- Dry needling is an advanced medical technique that aims at treating myofascial pain. In this technique, a dry needle is inserted in some specific muscle areas through the skin. These specific muscle areas are called trigger points and the technique is also known as ‘trigger point dry needling’, and ‘intramuscular muscular needle therapy’.

Heat therapy for muscle pain- Heat therapy helps to cut swelling. Electric hot pads, warm baths, hot cloths, hot water bottles are the tools used for therapeutic heat application. Heat increases blood flow, which reduces pain and swelling of the ached muscle fibers and eventually reduces muscle pain. Like heat therapy, there is also a process known as heat rubbing, which reduces muscle pain.
