Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, and tenderness in muscles, ligaments, and tendons. It's often accompanied by sleep disturbances, memory issues, and mood changes. The exact cause is not fully understood, but it is thought to involve abnormal pain processing in the brain and nervous system. While it affects people differently, fibromyalgia can significantly impact daily life and functioning. Diagnosis typically involves ruling out other conditions, as there are no specific tests. Treatment may include medications, physical therapy, exercise, and lifestyle changes to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
