Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to fibromyalgia.

Because there is no test for fibromyalgia I evaluate your symptoms to make a diagnosis.

I recommend using anti-inflammatory medication to treat pain such as Ibuprofen.

If the symptoms continue you should see a rheumatologist for further evaluation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
