If you have persistent pain as soon as you wake up in the morning, do not take it lightly, because it can be the sign of some major and serious disease. You can easily avoid it by identifying and treating it at the right time.
Which disease is it to have body pain in the morning
Body pain in the morning can also be due to thyroid disorder. Stiffness and pain in the body is also common in hypothyroidism, especially in the morning. Fatigue, weight gain and feeling cold are other symptoms. Lack of thyroid hormone in the body slows down metabolism and can cause stiffness or pain in muscles and joints.
Why does thyroid cause body pain in the morning?
1. Lack of thyroid hormone slows down the body's energy production process, causing the body to feel heavy and achy.
2. When the thyroid becomes weak, micro-inflammation can occur in the muscles, which is felt more when waking up in the morning.
3. There may be stiffness and pain especially in the knees, shoulders and neck. This usually happens more as soon as you get up.
4. Even after a night's sleep, you feel low in energy, which causes body pain.
What to do if you have body pain
Get your thyroid checked regularly (TSH, T3, T4 tests)
Take medicine as advised by doctor.
Take a diet rich in protein and iodine.
Do light exercise daily, especially stretching.
These are the reasons why the body hurts in the morning
1. Vitamin D deficiency
If your bones and muscles ache the most in the morning, this could be a sign of vitamin D deficiency. A sunless lifestyle and dietary deficiencies could be the reason for this.
2. Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a condition in which there are problems like pain in different parts of the body, fatigue and disturbed sleep. It hurts more in the morning because the muscles feel stiff.
4. Rheumatoid arthritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis is an autoimmune disease in which the joints of the body become swollen, especially when waking up in the morning. Patients experience a lot of pain and stiffness when waking up.
5. Poor sleep and stress
Not getting good sleep or being stressed also causes muscle pain and makes the body lethargic in the morning. Due to this, body pain persists as soon as one wakes up in the morning.
