Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a painful, often chronic and disabling condition with a poor prognosis for patients treated by physicians of various specializations, which may even cause them to undergo unnecessary diagnostic procedures. In fact, the disease can be identified early and relatively easily by detecting the typical symptoms and applying the diagnostic criteria. As a result of the above, patients lack access to adequate treatment and support and it is difficult for them to live a full and independent life.
Keywords: fibromyalgia, extensive pain, tender point, classification, treatment.
