Dear linbin:

The best resource on this is the manuals by Janett Travell on the pain refferal patterns of the muscular systems. There are two manuals. I believe the title of the manuals is Myofascial Pain & Dysfunction: the trigger point manual.

Referred pain by muscles is by far the most overlooked problem. Visceral pain referral is used extensively by the medical practitioner, but muscular pain referral is not

Hope that this is helpful.
