Summary

Fibromyalgia is one of the main causes of chronic musculoskeletal widespread pain. This condition presents a global prevalence of 2.7%, and it is more prevalent in women (with a female to male ratio of 3:1) over 50 years of age with low education level and low socioeconomic status, living in rural areas. High direct medical costs and significant indirect costs of this condition can't be ignored.
