Methods of treating body aches are simple, whether they are caused by muscle strain, arthritis, illness, or a chronic disease  like fibromyalgia. For short-term body aches, your body just needs time to heal or recover from an illness. For chronic pain, the key is learning to manage the pain.

If the body aches are due to strenuous exercise, either do a very light workout until your muscles feel better, or do some other kind of exercise that won’t further stress those muscles until they heal. Massage can help the muscles to relax and temporarily relieve body aches. Taking a warm bath, or using a heating pad on the area most affected by the aches can also have the same effect.

Skeletal muscle accounts for 40% of body weight, and about 85% of human pain complaints. The commonest muscles affected, in those seen in the pain clinic, are those in the neck, shoulder girdle, low back and hip
girdle.

Your muscles heal very differently than your bones. If you fracture a bone, as long as it is set and fixed in place properly, it will tend to heal so thoroughly that it will become stronger than it was before the fracture.

Chiropractic back pain treatment has traditionally been based on spinal manipulation, which generally involves applying a manual, controlled force into joints that have become restricted by tissue injury with the purpose of restoring the joint’s mobility, alleviating related pain and tightness, and allowing the tissues to heal.

While acute pain is a normal sensation triggered in the nervous system to alert you to possible injury and the need to take care of yourself, chronic pain is different. Chronic pain persists. Pain signals keep firing in the nervous system for weeks, months, even years.

There may have been an initial mishap, sprained back, serious infection, or there may be an ongoing cause of pain,  arthritis, cancer, ear infection, but some people suffer chronic pain in the absence of any past injury or evidence of body damage. Many chronic pain conditions affect older adults. Common chronic pain complaints include headache, low back pain, cancer pain, arthritis pain, neurogenic pain.
