How to diagnose |
|
Definition
Widespread body pain
Must be in 11/18 areas to count
Painful, not simply tender
4 kg pressure minimum to elicit pain |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Deep pain
• Diffuse, blotchy
• Follows vascular routes vs
neuronal pathways
• activity can increase the pain, rest
will lower pain |
