WHY DO YOUR MUSCLES ACHE?
Muscle aches and pains are common, typically involving more than one muscle. Muscle pain can also involve legaments, tendons, and other soft tissues that connect muscles, bones, and organs. Muscle pain is most frequently related to stress, tension, overuse, or muscle injury from exercise or physically-demanding work. In these situations, the pain tends to involve specific muscles and starts during or just after the activity. It is usually obvious which posture or activity is causing the pain.
The most common causes are: • Injury or trauma including sprains and strains • Overuse • Tension or stress
Muscle pain may also be due to: • Certain drugs, including: -Medicine lowering blood pressure -Medicine lowering cholesterol • Infections • Cold & Influenza (flu) • Electrolyte imbalances, such as too little potassium or calcium • Fibromyalgia Most aches and pains are temporary and generally last 1-3 days.
