Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Trapezius muscle injection group (Group A)  With a linear ultrasound transducer, the most painful /tender spot/trigger point of the trapezius muscle will be scanned in the sagittal plane, and the area will then receive an injection (0.25% 5 ml bupivacaine) through the in-plane method on day 15,30 and 45 
Comparator Agent  Trapezius trigger injection and erector spinae plane combined (Group B )  The spinous process of T3 is located at the same level/ horizontal plane as the root of the spine of the scapula and under it, the T4 posterior spinous process can be palpated, which also marks the extreme convexity of the thoracic kyphosis. Thus, making it the most prominent spinous process below the root of neck. T4 level will be initially assessed for the erector spinae plane block using a linear ultrasound transducer positioned transversely on the spinous processes. The hyperechoic transverse process will then be visible when the transducer has been positioned longitudinally for lateral scanning at the level of the T4 spinous process On the transverse process, from the deep to the surface, you can see the Erector spinae, Rhomboid major, and Trapezius muscles. Then 20 ml of 0.125% bupivacaine would be injected between the transverse process and the erector spinae muscle using a 90mm,25gauge needle in a caudal to cephalad manner through an in-plane approach and trapezius muscle trigger block will be done as described in Group A intervention on day 15,30 and 45

Brief Summary   In this study our aim is to compare the efficacy of ultrasound-guided combined erector spinae plane and trapezius myofascial trigger block versus trapezius muscle trigger point injection alone in patients with myofascial pain in the neck and upper back when combined with a standard exercise program and oral medication
