Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition. It is characterized by extensive pain on the muscles, ligaments and tendons. You will also feel extreme fatigue and tenderness somewhere in your body even with slight pressure. This will cause you terrible pain.

About two percent of the total population is affected with this disorder. It tends to occur more in women than in men and it increases with age. The disorder is inclined to occur after a physical or emotion trauma but some cases do not have any triggering factor.

It can sometimes be utterly frustrating to treat fibromyalgia and most of the times it can become complicated. More often than not, the results are inconsistent. Nonetheless, there is innovative form of treatment that is made possible by participating in research. The results of the researches may not show some encouragement but it could lead medicine to a path forward to a goal of discovering the treatment that work.

The primary treatment for this condition is to focus on the symptom of pain. It works towards increasing your tolerance and it involves aggressive interplay of interventions guided with discipline. Even if you do not have the symptoms of the disorder, it does not mean that the treatment is already successful.

The success is measured at how tolerable the symptoms are and how fully functional the individual still is. If the treatment is successful, you should be able to live a quality life. It is just that sometimes the illness does not respond to the treatment employed. However, patients are not that difficult to treat.

During the treatment process, some of the patients may have significant relief of their symptoms. Some others will only have the relief in moderation while others will only report a little of no relief at all. This is just the nature of treatment. - 30425
