Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition in which there is widespread musculoskeletal pain throughout the body. People suffering from fibromyalgia may also experience fatigue, tenderness in various areas, and insomnia. Severity of pain felt from fibromyalgia varies from person to person. People suffering from fibromyalgia may seek treatment at NP Practice, to reduce symptoms and to improve their quality of life through medication, education, lifestyle changes, and self-care strategies. Effective treatment plans that we develop reduce stress on the body, both mentally and physically. Ultimately, our main purpose is to assist all of our patients in their pursuit of a healthier, happier life—each individual at a time.

It is common to have neuropathic pain after shingles outbreaks have healed, especially since the nerve fibers can cause extended burning pain.

Signs and symptoms of neuropathic pain from shingles include:

• Pain that lasts three months or longer
• Sensitivity to a light touch
• Itchiness and numbness

Neuropathic pain from shingles may cause other problems such as insomnia, fatigue, depression, and lack of appetite. At NP Practice, our providers feel empathy for the pain our patients experience and we help patients improve health and wellness through total body pain management.

At NP Practice, our patients’ quality of life is our paramount purpose.
