| ==Myalgia differential diagnosis== | |
| | |
| The most common causes of myalgia are overuse, [[injury]] or [[Stress (medicine)|stress]]<ref name=MedlinePlus>[http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003178.htm MedlinePlus]</ref>. However, myalgia can also be caused by diseases, disorders, medications, as a response to vaccination and withdrawal syndromes.
| |
| | |
| ===Overuse===
| |
| Overuse of a muscle is using it too much, too soon and/or too often. <ref name=MedlinePlus/> Examples are:
| |
| *[[Repetitive strain injury]].
| |
| | |
| ===Injury===
| |
| The most common causes of myalgia by [[injury]] are: sprains and strain (injury)<ref name=MedlinePlus/>.

| | |
| ===As a Response to Vaccination===
| |
| A moderate occurrence (25-35%) of myalgia in recipients of [[tetanus]] [[vaccination]] is identified in the US; it presents in the large muscle groups and at the subcutaneous injection site. When a patient returns with these symptoms (which include [[fever]], poor [[appetite]] and [[lethargy]]), a clinician who fails to notice the recent tetanus vaccination on the patient's chart is in danger of making a life-threatening misdiagnosis.
| |
| : An item of note is that in heart patients using selective β<sub>1</sub>-blockers such as [[metoprolol]], incidence of myalgia after tetanus vaccination is significantly higher.
| |
| | |
| ===Withdrawal Syndromes===
| |
| Sudden cessation of [[opioids]], [[barbiturates]], [[benzodiazepines]], or [[alcohol]] can induce myalgia.
