Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition causing widespread musculoskeletal pain due to altered central nervous system pain processing. A 2026 Nature Medicine study identified 26 genetic variants linked to fibromyalgia. Symptoms include body pain, fatigue, sleep problems, brain fog, headaches, anxiety, and sensitivity to sound and light. Diagnosis involves medical history and symptom assessment, with no specific test. While incurable, fibromyalgia can be managed with medication, therapy, and lifestyle changes.
