Closing Thoughts
Besides non-drug therapies, there are other things you can do to manage your chronic pain. Healthy meals and regular exercise are essential to living well with your disorder. Adequate restorative sleep is also key in your pain management. Therefore, addressing your sleep issues or any other health problems which can contribute to more pain will definitely help with fibromyalgia pain managment.
Unlike painkillers, these lifestyle changes will not cause addictions or worsen your symptoms. So make them a priority. After all, the main goal of your treatment plan is to help you live a happier and healthier life.
All very well and good to say that chronic pain is a lifestyle problem rather than a a medical one. That’s rubbish. It depends on what the source of the pain is. Medicine hasn’t focused enough on finding answers to treating fibro myalgia. In the meantime, yes, try to help yourself with drug free alternatives but they are often ineffective too. And why don’t you recommend herbs and supplements? I have personal experience of using them and they are effective.
Help!! I can’t taste or smell anything!! My feet hurt my head has constant stabbing pains. I sleep very little and I get irritated easily.
