Abstract
Our results show that the prevalence of the rheumatologic pain is very high, predominating mainly in adult women with fibromyalgia. Pain location, intensity, and type, associated pathology, and treatment vary according to age, sex, and type of patient. The most commonly used drugs for pain management were NSAIDs (58%); opiodes were only used in 6.4% of patients even though pain was intense in more than two-thirds.
