Conditions > Aches & Pains
Aches and pains can be chronic (ongoing for a long period of time) or acute (arising suddenly).
The most common presentation of aches and pains are backache, neck and shoulder pain, joint pain, muscle pain, and pain due to injury. You may also suffer from tooth pain, headache or migraine, or specific joint conditions such as tennis elbow. Some general aches and pains can be caused by conditions such as fibromyalgia, the main symptom of which is widespread pain that is affected by stress levels, weather changes, and physical activity.
With fibromyalgia, the pain can sometimes feel like a burning or sharp, stabbing sensation, and may be accompanied by other symptoms such as a generalised sensitivity to pain, fatigue, or cognitive issues such as poor concentration or memory.
Aches and pains encompass various causes that can be attributed to various factors. These include:
If you are experiencing ongoing pain, it is important to see one of our doctors for a thorough consultation and examination in order to determine the cause and find a suitable treatment. The examination will help the doctor either tell you what is going on or recommend the specific testing and imaging required to find the right diagnosis and specialist referral or treatment plan.
We work with experienced consultants & healthcare professionals who have received positive feedback from our patients, and with whom we have established long-term relationships.
