Currently, there isn’t a cure for fibromyalgia.
Instead, treatment focuses on reducing symptoms and improving quality of life with:
- medications
- self-care strategies
- lifestyle changes
Medications can relieve pain and help you sleep better. Physical and occupational therapy improve your strength and reduce stress on your body. Exercise and stress-reduction techniques can help you feel better, both mentally and physically.
In addition, you may wish to seek out support and guidance. This may involve seeing a therapist or joining a support group.
