I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book if you suffer from any kind of chronic pain. Even if your doctor has pronounced judgement that he/she knows what’s causing things, try this book. As the author says, trigger point therapy should be the first course of treatment: it’s easy and cheap.

    Sometimes staying in the same position for too long such as when sleeping (an example only) can cause this kind of pain.

    However, because the pain feels like there's a rip it sounds like something more could be going on such as a tear to one of the muscles (another example only).

    I would recommend letting your mom know what's going on so that she can help you keep an eye on the situation.
