Greetings to all
Today we are going to know about a unusual disease so called Fibromyalgia!
Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder marked by widespread, unexplained pain in the muscles and joints.
It’s not a disease. It’s a syndrome, which is a collection of symptoms that occur together. Although many people think of it as an arthritic condition due to the symptoms, it’s not a type of arthritis.
The condition is often associated with tender points, which are termed “trigger points.” These are places on the body where even light pressure causes pain.
Common trigger points include:
- The back of the head,
- Tops of shoulders,
- Upper chest,
- Hips,
- Knees,
- Outer elbows,
A consistent dull ache through the entire body is also common.
People with this disorder may also have Common fibromyalgia symptoms include:
- widespread pain,
- joint and muscle stiffness after sleeping,
- headaches,
- irregular sleep patterns,
- tingling and numbness in the hands and feet,
- restless legs syndrome,
- sensitivity to cold or heat,
- difficulties with memory and concentration, known as “fibro fog”,
- fatigue,
- irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
The following may also occur:
- problems with vision,
- nausea,
- pelvic and urinary issues,
- rapid weight gain,
- dizziness,
- cold– or flu-like symptoms,
- skin problems,
- chest symptoms,
- depression and anxiety,
- post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD),
- breathing problems
Symptoms can appear at any time during a person’s life, but they are most common between the ages of 25 and 55.
Although the causes are unclear, fibromyalgia flare-ups can be the result of stress, physical trauma, or an apparently unrelated systemic illness like the flu.
Symptoms may be a result of the brain and nerves misinterpreting or overreacting to normal pain signals.
This could be possibly due to an imbalance in brain chemicals.
Because its symptoms are somewhat subjective and don’t have a clear known cause, fibromyalgia is often misdiagnosed as another disease.
This plays a role in some doctors questioning the syndrome altogether.
Although it is more widely accepted in medical circles than in the past, there are some doctors and researchers who don’t consider fibromyalgia a legitimate condition.
