It's a muscle hardness . It can be reduced

In simple words hardening of muscle fibre due to over work or pressure on specific points for example when you write for longer time pain Start around the shoulder blades area You need to stretch the muscle and  use a hot pack to reduce pain correct posture during working

Taut muscle is like a tight band in muscle which pains to touch, it may be due to decreased vitamin d3, calcium or poor hydration, prolonged sitting in same posture or sudden heavy weight lifting

Two ends coming closer are short and compact in length are called tight but a taut is two ends getting more apart, lengthened and stretched. Here you have to focus both on the root cause and the right way of treatment to manage it. You have to give more details of the area where you are having the issue

Taut muscle means a knot in muscle fibres that is localised When one group of muscle is tight ( shortness ) in muscle opp group muscle become weak & stretched So treatment should be Stretching - tight muscle Strengthening - weak muscle

Hey there! Please consult me online for better diagnosis.

Taut muscle bands are localized areas of muscle fibers that are contracted and feel tight, often resembling a rope or string under the skin. They can cause pain, stiffness, and may be associated with trigger points, which are sensitive spots within these bands that can elicit pain when pressed. Consult back for proper assessment to get proper treatment

Hi please take an online consultation for best diagnosis’ and treatment.

A taut muscle is one that has developed a localized area of excessive tension or stiffness, often felt as a tight band or knot (commonly called a trigger point). It usually results from muscle overuse, poor posture, stress, or injury. A tight muscle, on the other hand, refers to generalized shortening or reduced flexibility of the muscle not necessarily a specific knot. Difference: Taut muscle: Localized, painful, may refer pain elsewhere (trigger point). Tight muscle: General stiffness or reduced range of motion, usually without referred pain.

A taut muscle is a knot-like spot that stays contracted even at rest, causing local or radiating pain. A tight muscle feels stiff overall but relaxes with stretching. Taut muscles need manual therapy, dry needling, or cupping, While tight ones improve with stretching and mobility work.

If part of muscle is involved it’s taut n if whole muscle area is involved it’s tight.

A taut muscle means a small part of your muscle has become tight and feels like a rope or knot under the skin. It happens when some muscle fibers stay contracted for too long. This can cause pain, stiffness, or a pulling feeling A tight muscle, on the other hand, means the whole muscle feels stiff — usually from sitting too long, poor posture, or overuse
