Neuroinflammation Microstructural Evidence: Psychological Symptoms & Pain in Fibromyalgia
Structural and functional brain changes in fibromyalgia: investigation of potential mechanisms associated with central sensitization in chronic pain
Structural and functional brain changes in fibromyalgia: investigation of potential mechanisms associated with central sensitization in chronic pain
Despite different techniques, equipment, and statistical criteria, neuroimaging studies have been considerably consistent in the identification of brain regions involved in various pain related processes. Functional neuroimaging studies regularly identify activation differences in a stable set of brain regions between pain and control populations. Recent structural studies have reported similar gray matter abnormalities among multiple chronic pain populations. Yet, the findings from structural and functional imaging studies are not completely unified.
Together, these structural and functional imaging results suggest a functional plasticity of the brain circuitry that is consistent with theories of central sensitization, and may be a key factor in the development and/or maintenance of chronic pain.

Exercise is highly recommended as an adjunct therapy in fibromyalgia. We’re not talking about pounding the pavement, however. A 2010 review of exercise studies found that ‘slight to moderate’ intensity aerobic exercise sessions done two to three times a week worked best, and that appropriate levels of exercise result in improved […]
At least as early as 2006, researchers suggested that muscle ischemia (low blood flows) both during and after exercise could be causing pain in FM and driving the central sensitization found
Indeed, some research suggests the normal muscle recruitment is not occurring in FM
Problems with the microcirculation could, therefore, be contributing to the aerobic energy problems, pain, and weakness found in FM.
