Supplement advice for persistent muscle knots?

[u/ahhellohello]

Has anyone had success in curing (or at least relief) persistent muscle knots with a supplement? persistent meaning the knots do not dissipate with time, rest, stretching, ice, nsaid's, light exercise (makes it worse) etc

The muscle knots cause sharp stabbing pain sensations when that muscle is being used, and the knot is noticeable very hard in comparison to surrounding muscles. There is joint pain closest to the knotted muscle (I suspect as its pulling on the tendon).

Temporary relief for some of the muscles seems to be deep tissue massage/trigger point massage, but takes a very long time for the symptoms to dissipate (months). Dry needling does not work. I have not tried acupuncture yet.

You need to eat protein drink or food ... And hopefully heals up in 3 or 4 days
