Muscle pain originates in any of the muscles in the body. The medical term for muscle pain is myalgia. Muscle pain may arise due to injury or overexertion, infections of the soft tissues, or inflammatory conditions
Muscle pain is the hallmark symptom of some chronic conditions like fibromyalgia.
Related symptoms that can occur with muscle pain are
• Tenderness
• Swelling
• Redness
• Fever.
Include:
• A medical history
• A physical exam
During the exam, it’s important to establish whether the muscle is partially or completely torn, which can involve a much longer healing process, possible surgery, and a more complicated recovery.
• X-rays
• Lab tests are often not necessary, unless there was a history of trauma or evidence of infection.
Include:
• Medication
• Therapy: A physical therapist can use heat, ultrasound, TENs, interferantiol and other measures to help ease your pain and prevent a recurrence.
