Abstract:
Juvenile fibromyalgia (JFM) syndrome is a condition under the spectrum of chronic pain syndrome. It is characterized by chronic musculoskeletal pain with multiple tender points and other associated symptoms. Diagnosis requires ruling out organic causes in addition to at least five out of 18 tender points and fulfilling three out of 10 criteria. JFM can be debilitating and overwhelming to both the patient and the physician. Management requires an incredibly careful multidisciplinary approach, including psychotherapy and physiotherapy among others.
