Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MFPS) is a disorder common among patients who experience musculoskeletal pain. The condition originates from the muscles and the fascia which surrounds it. Initially, this condition used to be prevalent among people in their 40s and 50s. But presently, even young adults are affected. In this review, several databases have been consulted in the course of reviewing MFPS related studies. Aspects reviewed include its aetiopathophysiology, diagnostic criteria and management of MFPS. It is important to note that an increasing number of people among the ageing population suffer from musculoskeletal discomfort that interferes with their everyday activities and functions. It has a huge influence on their overall well being. This is creating a growing financial burden on the healthcare system. There is a lack of consensus regarding proper diagnostic criteria or tool, and treatment of MFPS. This review aimed to summarise recent advances in the diagnosis and intervention.
