Muscle Relaxants do not form a class of drugs but rather a group of medications that has a specific and different central sedative effect on body muscles. Actually, they do not influence muscles directly, they act in the brain. The main prescription and application of these
medications are to treat low back pain, related to muscle spasms. The pain, associated with the back, is described by tightness and tension in the muscles. The significance of treatment is recognized be many professional physicians as, leaving untreated, muscle spasms turn into muscle knots. These knots are more painful than spasms as they are excessive connective tissues that sometimes need to be extracted with the application of surgery.
