The posterior muscles of the neck MEDECIN
The muscles of the posterior part of the neck are divided into 4 layers from the surface to the depth by: – The trapeze – The splenius of the head and neck – The semispinatus
Myofascial syndrome of the medial pterygoid muscle MEDECIN
Anatomical reminder The muscle is inserted at the bottom on the internal face of the mandible, moves forward inwards and attaches at the top to the lateral plate of the pterygoid process (on the diagram
Myofascial syndrome of the lateral pterygoid muscle MEDECIN
Anatomical reminder The lateral pterygoid muscle is made up of 2 heads. The upper head inserts, posteriorly, on the capsule of the temporomandibular joint and on the articular disc, anteriorly on the sphenoid bone. The
Myofascial trapezius syndrome MEDECIN
Anatomical reminder The trapezius muscle consists of 3 parts: upper, middle and lower. The anatomical insertions of the two trapezius form a diamond extending from the occiput to the T12 vertebra. Laterally, it attaches to
Myofascial syndrome of the gluteus maximus muscle
Anatomical reminder The gluteus maximus muscle attaches proximally to the iliac crest, the lateral part of the sacrum and to the coccyx. The distal part attaches to the femur and the iliotibial band of the
Tibialis anterior muscle myofascial syndrome
Anatomical reminder The proximal insertion of the muscle is on the lateral condyle of the tibia, the upper half of the lateral aspect of the tibia. The tendon of the muscle, distally, attaches to the
Standing or trampling
Prolonged standing and trampling overwork the gluteal muscles. Firstly the gluteus minimus muscle and to a lesser extent the gluteus medius. this can lead to myofascial syndrome with associated referred pain. Myofascial syndrome of the

Pubic stress fracture
Results in pain in the inguinal region that is worse when walking or running Is linked to overuse of the hip adductors (running for example). Found in 1 to 2% of athletic runners. Diagnosis carried
Fatigue pubic symphysitis
It generally has an insidious onset with an exacerbation of symptoms during intense physical exercise. It must be distinguished: tendon tearing of the adductors at the level of the symphysis, stress fractures of the pubic
