Understanding fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a condition that causes ongoing pain in your body. The pain can come and go and affect muscles and joints in all parts of your body. You might also feel extremely tired, have trouble concentrating and sometimes feel a numb or tingling in the hands and feet.
There’s no cure for Fibromyalgia, but there are treatments that can help manage the pain.
