Natural Fibromyalgia Pain Relief You Wear

Fibromyalgia is an increasingly recognized condition characterized by widespread aches, pain and stiffness, tenderness in soft tissue, general fatigue and sleeping problems. The most common areas of the body affected by widespread aches or joint pain include:

• Elbow pain
• Knee joint pain

Diagnosis of fibromyalgia requires a history of a least three months of widespread pain, and pain and tenderness in at least 11 of 18 tender-point sites. These tender-point sites include fibrous tissue or muscles of the neck, shoulders, chest, rib cage, lower back, thighs, knees, arms (elbows) and buttocks.

It has been suggested that sleep disturbances, which are common in fibromyalgia patients, may actually cause the condition. Another theory suggests that the disorder may be associated with changes in skeletal muscle metabolism, possibly caused by decreased blood flow, which could cause chronic fatigue and weakness.
