There are a modest bunch of dangers that all fibromyalgia sufferers ought to know about, while everybody has different response to the numerous threats and triggers. 11 different are mentioned below that can cause your fibromyalgia symptoms to flare-up.

#1: Sitting For Too Long & Poor Posture

You’re not the only one, whether you sit at a work area throughout the day for work or you end up sitting the day away elsewhere. In fact, according to estimation by JustStand.org, the average person sits for 7-9 hours a day (and some sit for considerably longer – as much as 15 hours a day). In fibromyalgia sufferers, if your sitting is combined with poor posture, it can lead to greater pain, stiffness and tenderness. Your circulation in the body cuts off by sitting and poor posture, thereby the fresh supply of essential oxygen and nutrients to different systems in the body are cut off.

You should sit with a good posture at least and should take frequent breaks to stand and stretch your body, if you can’t escape sitting for most of the day.

#2: Weather

Almost 92% of fibromyalgia sufferers have a saying that their symptoms are affected by weather. Extremes in temperature (too hot or too cold), barometric pressure changes and rapid changes in weather are the most well-known weather phenomena related with flare-ups of fibromyalgia symptoms. It is clear by the overwhelming reports from real sufferers that weather can assume a part, while research on the actual effects of weather is restricted.

Fibromyalgia can be less affected by the weather by taking extra precautions to battle with the effects of weather (i.e. staying hydrated in extreme warm). And moving to different climates may help in case of extreme issues. In fact, Lyne Matalana, President of the National Fibromyalgia Association once remarked, “I know people who have packed up and moved their families because they felt another piece of the nation would be more agreeable for them. It can be that serious.”

We know above all that we urge to pace ourselves, as people are coping daily with the symptoms of fibromyalgia. Even so, for people having fibromyalgia has still having this biggest trap. May be it’s because we think we are having a fine day and still our body can afford more exertion. Or maybe we can’t think that our body’s limit is about to end for exertion but for whatever reason we keep doing all the things.

Over-exertion can have an enduring negative effect on your symptoms, whatever the situation is. Gradually, the pain will make up for long time and it may take a lot of time to recover than when you have had not pushed your limits. It can literally take a ton of training to actually perceive your limits and pace yourself, so it is really important to be aware of your body and its limits. Of course, there are so many days when your body can’t allow you to move in any way, so it isn’t a problem to “pace yourself”.

#4: Sugar (Simple Carbs)

Carbohydrates that are made up of one or two sugars are simple carbs. They seem like fast source of energy, but this is just a temporary boost and typically trailed by a crash in vitality levels. Simple carbs should be limited or eliminated from our diet, since fibromyalgia patients are very sensitive to changes in blood sugar.

Other negative health results like nerve damage can occur due to the over-consumption of sugar. Our nerve cells are swelled as water is drawn into them because of the over-consumption of sugar. At the same time, the outer layer of the nerve cells gets less flexible, causing them to crack and tear because of sugar. And the ultimate result is that we can lead to nerve damage, often resulting in pain, numbness or tingling in the extremities.

#7: Lack of Sleep

Fibromyalgia sufferers find hard to sleep. On one side, it is so difficult to sleep because of the symptoms of fibromyalgia– and often sleep problems like insomnia occurs. On other side, sensitivity to pain increases due to lack of pain and aggravate a portion of symptoms of fibromyalgia. It is an endless loop that can be hard to break.

Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia in patients with chronic give better (and all the more enduring) alleviation from a sleeping disorder than some prescription medications, according to a recent study published in JAMA Internal Medicine.[2] Regardless of whatever approach you take, if you are suffering from fibromyalgia, it is really essential to get the best night’s sleep possible (under the circumstances).

#8: Long Naps

Fibromyalgia is often linked with the difficulties arising in sleep and the resulting fatigue, so it is necessary for the sufferers to take naps during the day. While it is necessary to take a nap, but it is best to abstain from taking long, frequent nap.

Not only the symptoms of fibromyalgia are aggravated due to chronic stress, but other negative health outcomes are also occurred like high blood pressure, diabetes and more.

There can be a huge difference in your health if you find ways to constructively manage your stress. Look for the ways to maintain and release your stress, either it is through mindfulness techniques such as deep breathing and meditation or doing some relaxing hobbies to relax your mind.

#11: Sensory Overload

From some things, fibromyalgia patients are often really sensitive such as loud noises, odors, bright lights and more. Excess of these senses can lead to headaches or migraines, among other things. Your unwanted flare-up of symptoms can be stopped if you avoid the situations where sensory overload may occur.
