In addition to widespread pain, it is characterized by disturbances in sleep, physical exhaustion (fatigue) and memory problems. It occurs in people all over the world with a prevalence of around 2% &#8211; 8% reveals a 2014 research study published in the Journal JAMA[1]. The condition is typically diagnosed in people around 40 to 60 years of age. However, off late, even children and teenagers are suffering from fibromyalgia. It is more common in women than in men.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before knowing about the symptoms of fibromyalgia, let\u2019s discuss in detail about the causes of fibromyalgia and what does it mean.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What Causes Fibromyalgia?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Researchers and doctors are not aware of the exact cause of fibromyalgia. However, certain studies have reported that there are few factors which might work together to cause the condition. These include:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Genetics:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Researchers believe that certain genetic mutations may play a role in increasing your risk of fibromyalgia, however, no specific genes have been identified to date. The condition runs in families, which means that if you have a family member with fibromyalgia, you are at higher risk of suffering from the condition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Infections and diseases: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although no direct relationship between infections and fibromyalgia is reported, infections due to bacteria and viruses such as HCV, HIV might be involved. It is seen to be common in people suffering from autoimmune diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Trauma\/stress:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Be it physical or emotional trauma, people suffering from trauma may develop fibromyalgia. Stress, which causes hormonal changes in the body, may also contribute to fibromyalgia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/categories\/-27?utm_source=articletrack&amp;utm_medium=Stress-Management\"><strong>Choose Doctor&#8217;s Recommended Stress Management Products Right Here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Doctors do not fully understand the exact causes and factors which lead to such widespread pain in people with fibromyalgia. Some researchers believe that in people suffering from fibromyalgia, the muscles and tendons are excessively irritated due to various painful stimuli. This is amplified into severe painful sensations because it affects the way your brain processes pain signals. This heightened perception of pain is termed as central sensitization. Other conditions which may be developed due to central sensitization include irritable bowel syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome, and headaches.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What Are The Symptoms Of Fibromyalgia?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The three common symptoms of fibromyalgia include pain, fatigue, and sleep disturbance. As fibromyalgia causes pain all over the body, people with fibromyalgia also have &#8220;tender points,&#8221; places on the body that hurt when touched or when a standard amount of pressure (about 4 kg) is applied[2]. These include the shoulder girdle, hip (buttock, trochanter), jaw, upper back, lower back, upper arm, upper leg, chest, neck, abdomen, lower arm, and lower leg.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A chronic, widespread and persistent pain in the muscle and soft tissues is one of the primary symptoms of fibromyalgia. However, there is no visible inflammation or abnormality reported in these muscles. The pain is described as throbbing, soreness, stiffness and burning. In some cases, patients might feel numbness and tingling sensation in the arms and legs. The pain may aggravate due to stress, poor sleep, anxiety or exposure to cold.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/online-consultation?utm_source=articletrack&amp;utm_medium=consultation\"><strong>**Consult India\u2019s best doctors here**<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The other common symptoms of fibromyalgia include:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Persistent fatigue<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Difficulties falling asleep<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Feeling unusually light, or unrefreshing sleep<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Feeling exhausted even after a night\u2019s sleep<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Frequent headaches<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Memory problems<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Pain in the bladder or the need to urinate in a hurry or often<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Jaw pain<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Frequent abdominal pain<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Flu-like symptoms<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-Anxiety and depression<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Diagnosis Of Fibromyalgia: When To Go To A Doctor?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There isn\u2019t a lab test that can detect fibromyalgia. However, your doctor might order a few blood tests as it helps to rule out the other potential causes of chronic pain such as arthritis or a hormonal condition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/labs\"><b>Book an Online Lab Test Only @1mgLabs! Click Here To Know More.<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) has developed a guideline to help diagnose fibromyalgia. According to the guideline, a person can be diagnosed with fibromyalgia if he or she has widespread musculoskeletal pain along with severe tenderness (pain when touched) in at least 11 of 18 specific &#8220;tender points&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People suffering from any pain, difficulty in sleeping and excessive fatigue should consult a doctor at the earliest to rule out other possible conditions and get diagnosed. Moreover, early diagnosis help in the management of the symptoms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The painful tissues are not accompanied by tissue inflammation which is the reason why despite being suffering from potentially disabling body pain; patients with fibromyalgia do not develop tissue damage or deformity. Fibromyalgia isn\u2019t a life-threatening condition as it doesn\u2019t affect any organs nor does it affect your life expectancy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There isn\u2019t any specific cure for fibromyalgia but the treatment is aimed at reducing the severity of the symptoms and improving the quality of life. The treatment options for fibromyalgia include the use of medications to relieve pain and inflammation along with lifestyle changes such as exercising every day and maintaining a fixed sleep schedule.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>(The article is reviewed by <strong>Dr. Lalit Kanodia, General Physician<\/strong>)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended Reads:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/articles\/know-your-medicine-types-of-painkillers\/\"><strong>Know Your Medicine: Types of Painkillers<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/articles\/6-easy-tips-get-relief-back-pain-stiffness\/\"><strong>6 Easy Tips To Get Relief From Back Pain And Stiffness<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>References:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1.
