FIBROMYALGIA

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and tenderness. It is often accompanied by symptoms such as sleep disturbances, cognitive issues, and emotional distress. The exact cause is not fully understood, but it is linked to abnormal pain processing in the brain.

AYURVEDIC VIEW OF FIBROMYALGIA

According to Ayurveda, fibromyalgia is caused by an aggravation of Vata dosha and the accumulation of Ama (toxins).
