About

Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by musculoskeletal pain oftentimes accompanied by sleep, fatigue, memory, and mood issues. Research has shown that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations allowing your brain to process painful and nonpainful signals. Fibromyalgia can occur over time for no transparent reason. However, many people do experience symptoms of fibromyalgia after recent surgeries, physical trauma, or injection. Desert Pain Specialists offer many treatments that can minimize your pain.

Causes

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition that can be long-lasting. Fibromyalgia can be hard to identify as it manipulates many other conditions. Fibromyalgia can often be triggered by stressful events and emotional or physical stress. While there is currently no cure for fibromyalgia, Desert Pain Specialists can use several medications to help minimize and reduce your stress.

Treatment

As there currently isn’t a cure for fibromyalgia, lifestyle changes can be the most beneficial regimen someone can do. Please speak with your provider at Desert Pain Specialists to consider self-care tips. Coordinating regular healthy exercise, diet, reduced stress, and adequate sleep can significantly improve your symptoms.
