We believe that the measurement of PPTs in the sitting
position is a limitation of this study, as the examiner needs
to apply a greater amount of pressure when the subject is
in the sitting position than when the subject is lying on a
table. Moreover, the sample size was small, and therefore,
the findings are difficult to generalize.
In conclusion, PPTs decreased immediately after 10 min
of exercise or rest, but the PPTs of some muscles were increased
immediately after 40 min of exercise. Moreover, no
significant differences in these values were noted according
to the type of exercise. Therefore, both strengthening
exercise as well as aerobic exercise of mild intensity were
unable to effectively control pain. Hence, we suggest that
40 min is an effective exercise time, but that an increased
intensity of exercise is required to control pain.
Thus, more specific exercises need to be developed in the
future, including exercises with varying intensity and duration.
Moreover, the transition of a potential trigger point
to an activated trigger point should be identified to prevent
potential disease
