2. Connective Tissue Disorders
Myofascial pain syndrome can be connected to a range of different disorders that you might suffer at the same time, and the fact that these conditions are related at all can make it much easier for doctors to diagnose.
Just some of the conditions that can cause or aggravate instances or myofascial pain syndrome include a variety of connective tissue disorders, which includes ones like Marfan’s and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome – and the more we know about these conditions, the more we find ways in which the associated disorders and symptoms can be managed better.
If you suspect that you might have a connective tissue disorder or have any signs and symptoms in your family, make an appointment with your doctor so that the proper tests can be ordered. Living with an undiagnosed connective tissue disorder puts you at serious risk of developing conditions and symptoms that could be fatal – it’s always better to know.
