Fibromyalgia Pain Relief

As fibromyalgia exists in a wide spectrum of symptoms, the approach to fibromyalgia pain relief needs to be holistic and broad, too. Before developing a fibromyalgia treatment unique to an individual, however, a proper diagnosis of the disease must be done first. A proper diagnosis is always the best to combat any disease.


For instant pain relief, a patient can first be prescribed tested pain killers as initiated by a physician. For this, doctors often give acetaminophen, oxycodone, and Tramadol to deliver fast-acting fibromyalgia pain relief. Opioids are also commonly given to patients, but there use is highly regulated and monitored by physicians to avoid addiction and dependency. Some doctors also give Lidocaine to patients intravenously depending on the severity of the pain.

The medications for fibromyalgia pain relief, however, are only temporary. To increase the interval of pain attacks, the patient needs to live a disciplined lifestyle. The importance of exercise couldn't be stressed enough when it comes to combating fibromyalgia symptoms. Patients are started with low-level aerobic exercises, which are gradually increased as the patient can tolerate. Low-level exercises include swimming, and sedentary bicycling among others. For beginners, patients are advised to do at least 5 minutes of low-level exercise a day gradually increased as the patient develops tolerance to the routine. Low muscle oxygen level is somehow associated with fibromyalgia and exercise can bring much needed oxygen to the muscles. By doing so, the doctors hope to avoid to trigger the occurrence of the symptom.

Eating a well-balanced diet loaded with anti-oxidants is also advised to patients for fibromyalgia pain relief. Patients with low levels of anti oxidants in their system are more susceptible to pain and are most likely to develop fibromyalgia in the long run, too. Another symptom of fibromyalgia is sleep disorder. Therefore, caffeine should be banned for fibromyalgia patients specially few hours before bedtime if it can't be totally eliminated. Another habit to dump is smoking. Smoking can reduce the function of the lungs to deliver oxygen to your body, and when you have fibromyalgia, you need all the oxygen you can get.

Because there is no silver bullet that can treat fibromyalgia, patients need to examine their lifestyle and avoid trigger points of the symptoms. A fibromyalgia pain relief prescription from the doctor is helpful, but it's only temporary. What's permanent is the way you properly care for yourself to be on the top of your health always.
