What is Fibromyalgia and its Causes?
Fibromyalgia is the most common cause of chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain, often accompanied by fatigue and sometimes by psychiatric symptoms. Despite patients experiencing pain affecting the muscles, ligaments, and tendons, there is no evidence of inflammation in these tissues.
Characteristics of Fibromyalgia
Approximately 5.8 million individuals in the United States are affected by fibromyalgia. This condition is characterized by pervasive musculoskeletal pain, often accompanied by symptoms such as fatigue, difficulties with sleep, issues related to memory, and fluctuations in mood.
Kansas Pain Management understands that patients suffering from fibromyalgia can respond to treatments differently, and we aim to personalize treatment plans working alongside the patient and listening to their concerns.
