Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, often accompanied by fatigue, sleep disturbances, memory issues, and mood imbalances. This condition affects how the brain processes pain signals, amplifying painful sensations and causing discomfort throughout the body.
Symptoms of fibromyalgia include:
Fibromyalgia can also cause other symptoms like headaches, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, and heightened sensitivity to light, noise, or temperature changes.
The cause of fibromyalgia isn’t entirely known, but it’s likely a mix of factors, such as changes in how the brain and spine handle pain signals, genetic influences from family history, and triggers like physical injuries, infections, or severe stress.
No matter its cause, the condition can be managed with effective treatment.
