Injury And Muscle Trauma One Of The Causes Of FMSThe chronic fatigue syndrome is also known as the fibromyalgia or simply FMS, which is a condition that is not very common among patients. The disease is quite abnormal in its manifestations and its causes. The FMS disorder shows its symptoms more in women than in men and the age group it chooses is normally twenty to sixty. The patients of FMS are lucky enough because the disease is not progressive that is it does not grow or develop with the age of the patient nor with the onset of the disorder itself. In this disease the patient experiences pain and fatigue without any obvious reason and the sleep pattern of the patient is badly affected resulting in more fatigue and tiredness. The causes of this condition are not yet clear and the treatment also thus remains ineffective. There are many theories about the possible causes of FMS and some of them are quite convincing.
Health: The pain in the muscles is the most common complaint of most of the FMS patients and this further drives the disorder as it were, because due to pain in the muscles the person tends to do little or no movement at all and the pain makes him/her feel more exhausted and fatigued. Investigators think that injury to muscle can be the possible cause of FMS. The injuries to the muscles can done by any small cause by accident or over exercises or by hyper activity but many can be known but then there are other injuries that remain outside our attention which may become the trigger point in the body. What one does after a muscle injury is to lie down for some time and relax the injured muscle and this reaction is quite obvious but it may actually lead to develop the chronic pain of fibromyalgia. When the muscles are given rest they tend to become stiff and contracted in order to keep them conditioned they should be kept in action, when one takes to activity or exercise after a long period the muscles become stiff and there are trapped oxygen and other waste material which cause pain. Thus the trauma or a small injury that remains hidden can lead to FMS. |
