Joint Pain
Joint pain is very common in fibromyalgia patients. It feels like a swelling sensation and can restrict movement and cause immobility. In particular, fibromyalgia patients are very prone to having temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ). This condition produces mild to severe jaw pain and aches. The pain is mostly said to be dull and persistent and can occur in the ear, temple, eye area, lower jaw and nape.
Joint pain in fibromyalgia is common also because many fibro patients grapple with various types of arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis etc. This type of joint pain is described as a dull ache or burning sensation. The pain usually occurs when the particular joint has been used often.
