Reddit mentions of Healing through Trigger Point Therapy: A Guide to Fibromyalgia, Myofascial Pain and Dysfunction

Summer, I suggest looking into Myofascial pain management therapy and holistic avenues online as well.

Since there is a chronic history of a specific type of pain that's related to your orgasms, there may be a muscle within your body that is what is called "contractured", not just "contracted" that is causing you pain. Contractured muscles are muscles that have essentially seized up and are not firing correctly enough any more to contract properly. The issue with contractured muscles is that they can form in connective tissues, which have formally been thought by doctors to not be able to cause much of any pain at all (many docs still have this impression), as well as the fact that stretching contractured muscles is NOT helpful and an effective treatment. Instead, many who have chronic pain and get physical therapy stretching etc. end up in far worse shape and set way back than before.

Instead, it's important that the docs prescribe special (up-and-coming) injections called toradol injections, AND/OR myofascial trigger point massage therapy (by a CERTIFIED myofascial trigger point specialist specifically for people suffering from disabling chronic pain probs - NOT "sports medicine therapists")

If there is not treatment of the trigger points first, before stretching, it causes trauma to the muscle.

The reason I say all of this is because there has been yet more recent developments in the research surrounding the effects of the female orgasm and how it relates to a special muscle within the pelvis that is involved in the process. Docs are now learning more about how what seems to be a small outer muscle only ever being involved in this kind of thing is actually one that goes all the way around the inside of the pelvis.

I have a sneaky suspicion that perhaps you have tension from myofascial contractures within that special muscle, and it's connected to the spinal tissues that cause tension headache pain when pushed at.

Tension headaches stem from undue pressure put on various parts of the spine. In those cases, special stretching can help cure tension headaches, but in your case I really recommend looking into some kind of myofascial trigger point treatment FIRST.

Remember - no matter what a doctor says, your body is your body, and if they have a problem with you refusing certain treatments because you feel you know better about the info than they do, and they can't offer any new sources to back up any counterpoints to the research that you have done, that is all the more reason to NOT listen to them and go to someone else who has counterpoints, or alternatively, more evidence to back up what YOU are saying.

Please note, just for the record for you and others who may also read this - Fibromyalgia "tender points" are different than "trigger points". Docs also can get this easily confused.

Devin Starlanyl's website with tons of info for patients, and for patients to bring to their doctors to read up about this information. It might seem somewhat uneventful of a website, but the info stated is some of the best for quick references to these concepts:

Very helpful place to find help, as well as a great indicator of those who are skilled in accurate massage therapy by having gone through his personal certification programs -

Lastly, I think it would also be helpful to find an UPPER-CERVICAL CARE SPECIALIST Chiropractor if you have the ability. They are trained in MUCH MORE than just "cracking bones". I promise you this! But Upper Cervical care is super super extra important. No matter what. It is >>>essential<<< to find this kind of specialist within chiropractor networks to perhaps get some kind of helpful advice and/or treatment. They know lots about muscles, bones, medicine, and nutrition, as well as lots of other things.
