Trigger points are discrete, focal, hyperirritable spots located in a taut band of skeletal muscle. The spots are painful on compression and can produce referred pain, referred tenderness, motor dysfunction, and autonomic phenomena.
There are six ways to define trigger points in the body. They are either primary or secondary trigger points, active or latent trigger points, or key or satellite trigger points. These definitions tell the differences between the quality of the trigger point.
Primary/Secondary Trigger Points
Primary trigger points will activate a secondary trigger point but not vice versa. These can be treated and released.
Secondary trigger points do not go away if the primary trigger point is treated.
Active/Latent Trigger Points
Active trigger points will actively put pain in the area or to another location.
Latent trigger points do not cause pain in the area or other locations until stress is applied to activate it.

Key/Satellite Trigger Points
Key trigger points will refer pain in a nerve pathway to activate a latent trigger point or create a latent trigger point.
Satellite trigger points are activated by key trigger points. They go away if the key trigger point is treated.
