10 Types of Fibromyalgia Pain

 Fibromyalgia is a condition that causes widespread pain in the muscles, ligaments, joints, tendons, and other soft tissues of the body. Here are some common types of pain experienced in the different stages of fibromyalgia.


Constant Pain

Some report that their entire body is in deep, dull ache—especially in the lower back and legs.


Spreading pain


Spreading pain is a common symptom of fibromyalgia. Sometimes, you might feel pain in multiple areas of your body.


Throbbing/Pulsing pain

This is often described as a throbbing or pulsing sensation. It can be felt in different body areas, but tends to be most intense at the base of the skull, over the shoulders and upper back, and around your hips.


Shooting/Stabbing pain

When you have a pain described as “stabbing” or “shooting,” it has a sharp and quick onset. The pain can be felt in one area, or it may feel like it's all over your body.

Shooting/Burning pain

The most common form of fibromyalgia pain is a shooting or burning sensation that comes and goes. 


Muscle Spasms/Cramping

Muscle spasms are intense and abrupt, and they can be triggered by stress as well as fatigue.


Hypersensitivity

Hypersensitivity is a common symptom of fibromyalgia and can cause you to feel pain from the lightest touch.


Migraines/Headaches

Migraines and headaches are common in fibromyalgia. Migraines are more common in women than men, and a third of people with migraines have frequent episodes.


IBS

This is a chronic condition that affects the large intestine. The symptoms of IBS include abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and diarrhea or constipation.


Fibromyalgia pain affects your whole body, not just a specific area, and symptoms can vary from person to person.


Fibromyalgia can be life-changing, but it doesn’t have to define you. There are ways to manage your pain and even lessen it over time with the right treatment plan.

Why Cellerciser Is the Best Thing That Can Happen to You!

Image
  A rebounder is also known as a cellerciser. You might be wondering why. That is because rebounding exercises every single cell in your body, which is why some people call it cellercising. When you jump on a trampoline, three forces act concurrently to strengthen and cleanse your cells: gravity, acceleration, and deceleration. Unlike other types of exercise, you accelerate and decelerate vertically, on the same plane as gravity. These three pressures work together to extract poisons from the cells at the bottom of the bounce. The pressure is reduced towards the peak of the bounce, allowing your lymph to flow upwards. Circulation is improved, and the lymphatic system is cleaned and pumped. How Does Cellerciser Rebounder Work? Numerous forms of exercise are performed to target specific muscles or just to improve cardiovascular function. Rebounding is unusual in that it employs acceleration and deceleration forces and may operate on every cell in the body in a different way. ...
