FIBROMYALGIA
Caused by a malfunction
in the way the brain
processes pain signals,
resulting in widespread
pain, fatigue, and other
symptoms

Fibromyalgia causes
pain in your muscles. It
can also make you feel
fatigued and cause
mental symptoms like
memory problems.
Experts don’t know what
causes fibromyalgia —
and there’s no cure for
it.
OSTEOARTHRITIS
Caused by wear and tear
on the joints over time,
leading to pain, stiffness,
and loss of mobility.

In osteoarthritis, the
protective cartilage on the
ends of your bones breaks
down, causing pain,
swelling and problems
moving the joint. Bony
growths can develop, and
the area can become
swollen and red.
