Fibromyalgia Syndrome

Fibromyalgia Syndrome is a chronic pain disorder characterised by widespread musculoskeletal pain, persistent fatigue, sleep disturbances, and cognitive difficulties often referred to as “fibro fog.” It affects the way the nervous system processes pain signals, making pain feel amplified even without a clear tissue injury.

Symptoms

Common symptoms include widespread body pain and tenderness, persistent fatigue, non-restorative sleep, difficulty with concentration and memory, and heightened sensitivity to touch, light, or sound.

Common Causes

The exact cause is not fully understood, but fibromyalgia involves abnormal pain processing in the central nervous system. It is often triggered or worsened by physical or emotional stress, infection, or trauma.

Treatment and Process

Dr. Ritu Pauranik offers a personalised, multimodal approach to fibromyalgia management combining medication, lifestyle modification, physiotherapy guidance, and where appropriate, targeted interventional procedures such as nerve blocks to address specific areas of pain. This integrated approach aims to reduce pain intensity, improve sleep quality, and restore daily function.
