I have been feeling old, if u have been injured can that bring on fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia: It is reported that neck injuries can increase the risk for developing symptoms of fibromyalgia, as well as stress & poor sleep. Consult your primary care doc. For workup & tx recommendations.

Yes: Mechanical injuries commonly primary causation for fibromyalgia. Over time injured body parts, unconsciously splinted & protected, develop soft tissue atrophy from disuse. Resultant chronic soft tissue spasms lead to painful trigger points, begetting further splinting and guarding; as the FM syndrome begets itself. By time of full-blown chronic widespread pain, original injury oft forgotten.
