  2. Introduction Muscle stiffness is also called muscle rigidity, rigor, or tension that’s accompanied by chronic pain, discomfort & cramping. This is a very common problem mostly found in people of all age groups. This stiffness occurs when the muscles can’t relax normally. According to reputable massage therapy schools in Oahu, muscle stiffness can be severe if it’s not treated at an early stage. In this article, we will focus on major causes of muscle rigidity & how to prevent it. 1. Hard physical exercise One of the major causes of muscle rigidity includes hard physical labor & too much exercise. During exercise, our muscles work harder & effectively causing damage to the microscopic fibers, resulting in soreness or muscle rigidity. In medical science, this is known as DOMS or delayed onset muscle soreness which is mainly caused by: ·Running or jogging downhill for a long period ·Lifting heavy weights frequently ·Doing squats and push-ups

  3. 2. Sprains & strains Another major reason for muscle rigidity is sprain or strain that can badly affect our ligaments & muscles as well. A strain occurs when the muscle fiber starts stretching & it’s particularly found in the lower back and leg areas. On the other hand, a sprain occurs when our ligaments start stretching or twisting. Common areas for sprain or strain include knees, ankles, wrists, and thumbs. You may feel the following symptoms if it occurs: ·Sharp pain ·Swelling & bruising ·Tenderness ·Redness 3. Sprains & strains Polymyalgia rheumatica is a common medical condition that effectively causes muscle stiffness and chronic pain. It mainly affects the upper portions of our body including necks, shoulders, & arms. Polymyalgia rheumatica is mostly found in older people & the actual cause of this disorder is still unclear. Common symptoms include: • Trouble sleeping • Difficult to wear cloths • Unable to move • Sharp pain

  4. 4. Specific health conditions Some particular health issues also cause muscle stiffness or muscle rigidity.
