Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain syndrome characterized by widespread muscle and skeletal system pain, muscle stiffness and tenderness, fatigue, weakness, sleep disturbances, digestive problems, depression, as well as memory and concentration issues.

Although its exact cause is not fully understood, it is believed that factors such as genetic predisposition, environmental elements, stress, trauma, or infections may play a role.

The diagnosis requires the presence of symptoms for at least three months, including widespread pain (upper and lower body, right and left sides, as well as front and back), along with the identification of at least 11 tender points.

Treatment typically focuses on symptom management, pain reduction, improvement of sleep patterns, stress management, and enhancing overall quality of life. Conventional treatments often include medication and cardio exercises.
