Gastrocnemio - Anatomía del punto gatillo
Músculo gastrocnemio y puntos gatillo
Se pueden formar varios puntos gatillo en este músculo, que generalmente refieren dolor (y, a veces, rigidez) en la cara plantar medial del pie, y dolor difuso que se extiende por uno o ambos gásteres.
En algunos casos, el dolor también puede referirse a los isquiotibiales mediales. Por lo general, los clientes intentarán estirar los síntomas. Es más probable que esto irrite la respuesta del huso muscular y solo sirva para empeorar el problema.
Los puntos de activación en los músculos de la pantorrilla generalmente son causados por correr, correr, saltar, escalar o usar tacones altos durante largos períodos de tiempo, o el uso prolongado de reposapiés (por ejemplo, conducir).
