    I think this is what is giving me incredible tight mid back pain. All the way from my upper back to my low back and i feel it referring to my si joint which ia dysfunctional. I also gave psoas dysfunction. My tva isnt strong at all. So my my other back myscles have to be recruited. And i learned the abs go all the way up to the upper back! I didnt know that! That explains so mich about all my back and si joint dysfunction. The other thing is I have had and still have some fibrous tissue on those areas and I think some of that is my fault for using ice. I think ice is not my friend. It's not helping the spasms. It's making it worse. It's probably developing these fibrous tissue on the spine! That's my pain! So I'm wondering if the fibrous tissue and the erector spinae are related, as I'm having pain from my upper back to my low back and si joint ofc. It's all starting to make sense. I feel it right next to the spine. I've had acupuncture treatment and it hurt like hell and I never asked an acupuncturist to take out a needle but I had to for this. It was the worst pain I've ever felt. I cant handle acu on those spots next to the spine. It's a 12/10 pain. I need other ways to get it out.

      We understand your concern! Treating trigger points can cause some discomfort, but it shouldn't be excessively painful. The goal is to apply enough pressure to release the tension without causing injury. If it hurts too much, ease off a bit and gradually increase pressure. Always listen to your body! 😊

    it's good that you're showing this can be treated, but for practitioners this is not good mechanics with an open thumb. When you're doing a lot of work like this you want to work with a knuckle or an elbow or a closed and supported thumb.
