I thought all trigger points hurt during movement, not just at rest.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I think the answer was A, an active trigger point. That sounds right to me!

I feel like we discussed latent trigger points in class, but they don't seem to fit this description. I think it's definitely not that one.

I remember something about primary and secondary trigger points, but I can't recall the exact definitions. This question is tricky!

I think it might be an active trigger point since it's painful at rest and during movement, but I'm not completely sure.
