Abstract
The quality and mechanisms of muscle pain are different from that of cutaneous pain. So too is the pattern of cytokine release during inflammation. Inhibiting TNF-α is unlikely to be effective in managing inflammatory muscle pain, but other cytokines, notably IL-1β and CINC-1, may prove useful therapeutic targets.
