This may seem elementary, but it’s one of the best places to start when addressing pain.

Muscle, by definition, is the tissue that powers the body. This tissue is composed of layers of cells and fibers encased in protective tissue. 

There are three types of muscle:

1. Cardiac Muscle
2. Skeletal Muscle
3. And Smooth Muscle

Cardiac muscle, as its name would entail, is the tissue of the heart.

Skeletal muscle refers to your outermost layer of muscle that moves the body.

Your brain electronically and chemically sends signals through your nerves to the muscles, triggering movement and function.  

Here are two examples -

1. A tiny muscle called the multifidus is responsible for a lot of lower back pain.
2. A large muscle called the diaphragm is responsible for every single breath you take.  

There are many possible causes of muscle pain, and this can make it difficult to pinpoint the root cause of your individual experience.

Muscle pain, also called myalgia, can be brought on by infection, injury, or even another underlying health problem.

It is generalized and is not meant to imply that all pain can be blamed on something. That is not true and not how life really works.  

Over-exercising can lead to tightness, tension, and strain in your muscles.

You can also develop microtears in your muscles that can further damage or weaken their integrity.

Note that exercising a normal amount of time and with a normal amount of intensity can do the same damage if you begin in a deconditioned state.

This includes Lupus, Lyme disease, chronic fatigue, and inflammation.

A very common source of muscle pain that is often undertreated is fibromyalgia.

This is also sometimes called myositis.  

Again, determining the exact reason for your muscle pain can be difficult, but a medical professional can help you to identify the problem.
