Elbow/ Finger Pain

Hi, 6 months diagnosed with Fibro. I get pain at side of my elbow and it clicks a lot when bending it. Can fibromyalgia cause bones to click and crack? Also when I get this clicking in the elbow, the pain goes down to my fingers, would this be connected? Just wondering has anyone else suffered with this and what they would recommend to do? Thanks

Hi Redd

Possibly symptom of hypermobility. There is a lot of crossover between fibromyalgia and having hypermobility where the muscles are not strong and therefore you can make clicks and cricks with joints and damage/pain can trigger fibromyalgia. It is okay when you are just supple but if you hurt it becomes a recognised symptom.

Not what you're looking for?
