| Summary: | Fibromyalgia is a syndrome due to the way of disorganized,
stressful and overloaded life determining tensions and extensive
musculoskeletal pain, accompanied by fatigue, stiffness and sensitive
areas of soft tissues.
This paper attempts to analyze treatment opportunities to improve the
evolution and prognosis of the disease on a study group of 5 patients. The
recovery methods included in treatment had as main goals: pain relief,
local and general relaxation, preserving function, increasing mobility,
increasing overall functionality. The main methods of applied treatment
in which we achieved beneficial outcomes are sedative massage to
decrease muscle tension, electrotherapy and thermotherapy, muscle
stretching and active movement.
Final indicators VAS pain scale obtained were reduced leading to the
end of treatment to minimum 2. Number of painful points from each
patient decreased from baseline average of 9.8 to 4.4 final. Using the
recovery methods it was obtained an improvement in symptoms and
quality of life.
Fibromyalgia is a condition that causes widespread morbidity and
treatment is complex and multidisciplinary. |
