Breaks the body without temperature. Reasons for women, men, what is it, treatment, what to do during pregnancy, breastfeeding

Breaks the body without raising the temperature in cases where the body is trying to signal the presence of pathological processes. Aching in men and women is expressed by moderate pain sensations throughout the body, which cause discomfort and reduce performance. To find out the causes of the manifested symptom, laboratory and instrumental research methods are used.

Reasons for the appearance

The manifestations of body aches are caused by physiological, inflammatory, infectious and other pathological processes in the body.

Physiological factors include:

• degenerative changes in tissues in the elderly;
• fatigue associated with prolonged stay on the legs;
• the consequences of intense physical exertion;
• 3 semester of pregnancy in women;
• increased stress on joints in overweight people;
• hormonal changes in women during menopause.

Body aches can be the result of such pathological processes:

• the initial stage of a viral infection;
• manifestations of ARVI and influenza;
• the consequences of intoxication of the body of food or chemical poisoning;
• helminthiasis;
• immunodeficiency states after illness.

Breaks the body without temperature (causes in women and men can be associated with systemic diseases) in traumatic injuries caused by bruises, sprains or tears of the ligaments.

Possible diseases

The pathogenesis of body aches during inflammatory processes is associated with the production and accumulation of toxic products that destroy the cells of the body. Affected cells send signals to pain receptors, which, in turn, send a signal to the brain.

Due to the fact that the volume of damage and the intensity of the signal are rather weak, the manifestation of pain is expressed by aches and unpleasant sensations in the muscles and joints.

The main diseases that provoke body aches include:

Fibromyalgia	a chronic disease associated with damage to extra-articular tissues and provoking the development of diffuse musculoskeletal pain.
Osteochondrosis	degenerative-dystrophic processes of the musculoskeletal system, which are characterized by rapid wear and premature aging of the osteoarticular apparatus.
Osteoarthritis	a group of diseases in which the cartilage tissue of the articular surfaces is damaged.
Gout	metabolic disorder, accompanied by the deposition of uric acid in the joint cavity.
Rheumatoid arthritis	an inflammatory disease associated with damage to the joints and internal organs.
Scleroderma	damage to connective tissue, the manifestation of which is associated with impaired blood supply and hardening of organs.

Breaks the body without temperature in men and women with infectious diseases.

The cause of discomfort can be defeat:

• respiratory system (tracheitis, bronchitis, pneumonia);
• organs of the digestive tract (typhoid fever, salmonellosis);
• genitourinary system (cystitis, pyelonephritis, urethritis).

Diagnostics

To diagnose diseases that provoke body aches, instrumental and laboratory research methods are used. The initial stage of the examination includes a visual examination and collection of anamnesis at an appointment with a general practitioner. Then, depending on the causes of the aches and the presence of symptoms, the most appropriate diagnostic method is prescribed.

Laboratory studies are used when an inflammatory process is suspected, as well as to assess the general condition of the patient.

These include:

• General clinical blood test - one of the simplest and most accessible methods of laboratory research, which allows you to systematically assess the state of the body. As a biological material for analysis, venous or capillary blood is used, which is amenable to microscopic examination. Analysis cost - from 200 rubles.
• General urine analysis - a complex type of laboratory study of urine to determine its physical and chemical characteristics. Allows you to identify the presence of inflammatory processes in cystitis and pyelonephritis. Research price - from 200 rubles.

Specific laboratory methods are used in cases of an infectious nature, body aches. To diagnose infectious diseases, a bacteriological study of various types of biomaterial is carried out - sputum, feces, cultures from the throat.

Instrumental diagnostic methods are used for diseases of the musculoskeletal system.

Most often, patients are referred for the following examinations:

1. Radiography is performed in such cases:

• scanning of bone structures when pain is localized in one part of the body in order to exclude or confirm injuries;
• diagnostics of diseases of the musculoskeletal system;
• studies of the state of the lungs and internal organs with suspicion of the presence of diseases of a systemic nature: pneumonia, liver anomalies, pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract.

1. Ultrasound of joints and bone tissue includes ultrasound examination of the hip, elbow, shoulder joints, as well as the ankle. The method allows you to determine:

• the degree of clarity of the contours of the joints;
• disorders in the cartilage tissue of the joints;
• condition of the joint space;
• homogeneity of the structure of the intra-articular fluid.

The cost of an ultrasound scan depends on the area under study and varies from 450 to 1200 rubles.

1. MRI of joints allows you to take pictures of the area of ​​interest in a three-dimensional image. The method is used to diagnose large joints, ligaments, tendons and muscles with:

• arthrosis;
• arthritis;
• injuries;
• osteochondrosis;
• suspicion of tumor processes.

The cost of the study is 2600-3500 rubles.

Invasive diagnostic methods include arthroscopy of the knee joint, an endoscopic operation used for the comprehensive diagnosis of joint injuries using puncture portals.

The procedure is carried out in a hospital setting, and its duration is no more than 30 minutes. 3-4 hours after the end of the manipulation, the patient is released home. The cost of the operation is from 15,000 rubles.

When to see a doctor

Breaks the body without temperature (causes in women and men are associated with disorders of the musculoskeletal system) due to physiological or pathological processes.

When the aches are concentrated mainly in the lower extremities or in the lumbar region, then we can talk about the body's natural reaction to overwork. In such cases, no specific treatment is required, it is enough to correctly organize the daily regimen and increase the duration of rest.

However, if the body aches systematically for a long time (from a week or more) or there are concomitant symptoms, you should consult a general practitioner - therapist.

The following symptoms will indicate the presence of pathological processes that provoke body aches without temperature:

• manifestation of a rash;
• severe swelling of tissues in the area of ​​the joints;
• swollen lymph nodes;
• signs of the initial stage of ARVI - runny nose, sore throat, cough.

After contacting a medical institution, the therapist will conduct a visual examination and select the necessary diagnostic method, the results of which will affect the way of further treatment.

Prophylaxis

There are no specific preventive measures that can prevent the appearance of body aches.

But there are some recommendations that can reduce the risks of developing pathological processes, provoking discomfort in the joints and muscles:

• avoid overwork;
• alternate intense physical activity and good rest;

To eliminate body aches and relieve inflammatory processes, it is shown:

• Electrophoresis - the introduction of drugs through the skin using an electric current. For the procedure, agents such as Lidocaine, Novocaine and Dimexide are used. Elimination of pain syndrome in case of joint inflammation and cartilage damage is carried out using preparations based on mummy, therapeutic mud and plant extracts.

The method is used to treat osteochondrosis, arthritis, arthrosis.

Possible complications

Body aches can lead to the development of various complications only when it is a symptom of a systemic disease.

The manifestation of the consequences of untimely treatment will depend on the nature of the pathological process:

• with food poisoning - intoxication of the body, dehydration;
• with influenza and ARVI - the addition of a bacterial infection, pulmonary edema;
• with infectious diseases - acute renal failure, infectious toxic shock;
• with arthritis of the joints - a decrease in bone density, amyloidosis, ankylosis;
• with osteochondrosis - herniated discs.
