Central sensitization is a condition that affects many people with chronic pain. The person feels like brain fog, difficulty to concentrate, poor memory, low mood, low energy, fatigue and has pain in many parts of their body. This is common in people with fibromyalgia and complex regional pain syndrome. Central sensitization is also present in people who have opioid-induced hyperalgesia.
The treatments involve mind-body therapies and movement (exercises).

The most enlightening and rational explanation I have ever heard. Too many MDs attribute these symptoms to aging- that's if you're over 45 welcome to the club. Thank you so much for all your invaluable work, Dr. Furlan.
Thank you for watching the video and writing this comment. Please share this video with your friends. I have lots of videos about chronic pain on my channel ua-cam.com/users/DrAndreaFurlan And don't forget to turn on the notifications 🔔
Excellent, fabulous, bright, and rational explanation, Dr. Furlan! I'm going to keep this video and share it in legal way with friends due to its interesting and significant information. It would be great if we could know your workplace, so we can make appointments with you. You are a formidable, smart, and communicative doctor, from my point of view! Keep it up and thanks a lot!

I was diagnosed a few months ago. It took about 14 years to find an amazing Doctor. She believed me and ran all the tests possible, sent me to great specialists, and they all have agreed that it's CPS.
I also suffer from PTSD, anxiety and depression, PCOS, and myofascial syndrome.
I've been taking duloxetine, amitriptyline, b12, metformin... the side effects were awful at first, but once my body got used to the meds, I started feeling better. The pain is never completely gone, but at least I'm not bedridden anymore.
Dr. Furlan has told the story of my life with fibromyalgia, central sensitization, and now, after a three level lumbar fusion, I am fearful that my tendency to simply develop more pain pathways will mean that I get no relief from this fusion, but just more new places for my brain to over focus ! When I first discovered the concepts of neuroplasticity it was such a relief to have clear information that could explain the WHYs around chronic pain syndromes. Now, back to doing the work of retraining my 74 year old brain, to hopefully have better overall control over my symptoms.
How are you now
I didn't even have words to describe my pain to my doctor, I guessed that's why he was unable to help me. I have been praying to find a way to heal my tingling and numbness which goes from my toes to my brain. I don't care how many years it takes to heal, but at least now I have hope. This doctor is saving so many souls from so much suffering and despair. Gratitude, gratitude, gratitude. I feel better already.
I have head n face tingling it's so ugly pain on favevfor few sec but not on one side it changes then it stops and upon that terrible ringing ear in 1 right ear , so I have been lots of test n last torching mri , ct scan much better , I hate mri n all report came normal, now no diagnosis they says it like sycodomatic disorder, in 3 months every 15 days I changed different medication it eorks to less symptoms then its back now vslium added too. So how can we accept n. Live normal life, any solution pls share
@@yasinv3743 trigeminal neuralgia
It’s extremely difficult to suffer such pain when looking so normal. Never able to sleep, POTS, migraines, smells, light and everything else this wonderful doctor has talked about. I’m desperately trying to retrain my brain.
@@yasinv3743 living with CFS and or Fibromyalgia has such a laundry list of symptoms it’s hard to believe!
I suffer from fibromyalgia, your videos are excellent for self help.. thanks Dr.
Glad you like them
Fantastic. I'm a pain specialist and I have never come across a better and more precise explanation of the Subject. Thank You! I will guide my residents to this video

@@DrAndreaFurlan - I was diagnosed with central sensitization in 2010 at Vanderbilt by a highly decorated PhD pain physician. He did not tell me how to fix it, but I assume there was less information about it back then. He put me on a fentanyl patch.
Two years later, a geneticist at Vanderbilt diagnosed me with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.
I know EDS causes a lot of pain by itself due to mechanical faults and damage in the body tissues. But I believe the central sensitization diagnosis was also correct due to my sensitivity to noise, lights, tastes, smells, crowds, etc., etc..
Over the years, I asked for reductions in my pain medication because I knew my tolerance was increasing and it was harder to control my pain. But when I had an illness or injury and requested an increase in medication, it was never granted.
I am now fully disabled, not on any pain medication, and I spend my days living alone lying on my couch. I suffer from terrible anxiety, depression, insomnia, fatigue, and of most of all, pain. Doctors do not take me seriously when I tell them how much I am suffering. The best way I can control my symptoms is by laying still, in the dark, quietly listening to UA-cam videos.
I know opioids are not recommended in most situations, but with pain medication, I am able to function. My pain is reduced, my mood is better, and I am able to sleep at night. Unfortunately, due to my numerous trips to the ER due to uncontrollable pain, no doctor will prescribe controlled substances. I have a broken tooth that needs to be pulled, but I am avoiding it because I know I will not be able to handle the pain without medication.
I just want doctors to know that people who suffer from severe, chronic pain are not drug-seekers. I have lost my career, husband, family, and friends - not due to drugs - due to pain.
Dear Dr. Andrea: I am ALWAYS so overwhelmed with DELIGHT & HOPE watching and listening
to you with your clear, caring, informative, and most hopeful videos for us with pain. I believe that we should have modern day 'SAINTS' and honour YOU
You are so welcome!
You covered half of the symptoms. I had 22 out of 34 CSS symptoms and 16 occuring simultaneously for nearly 6 years. I have been suffering with it for 26 years and disabled by it for 16 years. I began “doing the work” to accept and commit to using the tools and have improved significantly. I am down to mostly 4-6 symptoms constantly but still feel run over by a truck most mornings. But I was an extreme case I think and undiagnosed until 6 years ago. It takes a lot of work to calm this monster down. Much of the work and therapy seems counterintuitive at first. Don’t give up.

@@DrAndreaFurlan Thank you. I was just sharing my journey. I have a team of doctors with the VA. I appreciate your educational videos.
Same as myself what are you using what works best
@@Truerealism747 Sorry. It’s tough, but we are tougher, right?
@@Truerealism747 So the last four years has been a journey, combination of isolation and sedentary living plus a big problem with the medication caused me to gain quite a bit of weight. I made the effort to lose that weight and I started walking. It was tough because my body (brain) rebelled against the walking at first. So I started desensitizing by going out a little bit further each day and each time and then I decided to just be really easy with myself and so I just kept walking. In time I started making breakthroughs, and I bought a Fitbit watch to help me motivate. Then I got some dumbbells and some of those exercise bands. Also got one of those exercise balls that you can sit on to begin getting some balance and put some variety into it. The whole process is kind of doing the meditation, the deep breathing, practicing relaxing every muscle from head to toe, walking, doing some weights, and just being patient with yourself. I’ve made a lot of progress.
I’ve gotten a lot of improvement and function back.
But it’s not for the faint hearted, that is for sure. And 3 years to see big improvement is not a long time if you have it pretty bad to start with. God bless you and I wish you great success.
This video is like god’s sent for me helped to figure out why I’m in constant body pain all examples were exactly how I feel on daily basis . I’m definitely going to follow with recommendations
I'm glad to hear that Olesya, but please talk to your doctor to confirm the diagnosis.
Thank you for the explanation; I found your channel because I was recently diagnosed with CS after a year of searches . It all started from a TMJ issue which, if left alone, would have gone away on its own . It was retraumatized by different manipulations and now I feel like my brain is attached to my symptoms. I fear any kind of movement, jaw exercises ( done mildly mind you - one repetition more specifically) fires up my symptoms, cervical and back exercises made symptoms worse and so I developed anxiety around working out. I only do walks now. I feel like my body is against me and whatever I try to do just makes things worse. I was recommended behavioral therapy which I will start today and I will focus on the "mental" side of things for a while since anything else just makes things worse, which gives me more anxiety and depression. I used to be highly active, I still am very healthy but for these troubling symptoms, and so depression is something that overtook me. The thing that baffles me is that I am even scared of getting better. I am really messed up psychologically because of what is happening and I don't know what normal feels like anymore.
Oh ❤i feel your pain. It sounds very bad,especially with all the extra anxiety. Sorry. Maybe you can start slow with psychological therapy CBT, and later progress from there...bit by bit. Good luck?
I'm blown away each time I watch a new video by Dr Andrea Furlan! She is so incredibly intelligent! Thank you doctor for all your informative videos!!!
I'm glad I can help.
Excellent description of central sensitization with helpful visuals. I am grateful for the hope you are sowing. Thank goodness evidence based treatments are available. I will share & discuss with my GP. 🙏🏻
I'm glad you like it.
That's the most detailed explanation I have ever heard on this topic. Thank you so much Dr. Furlan.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great explanation! It's true that so many doctors are in the dark about central sensitization. Thank you for getting the word out!
Thank you Brandon
You're my new hero. I agree with every word you said and utilize all these in my program. Thank you for making it all so clear and easy to understand!! Much Love!!

Wow this information is great made me understand what is going on in my body I’m definitely central sensitization I’m so happy I cam across this video thank you Dr. A lot of things you mentioned about pain is what I’m feeling with the pain. I took control of a lot of things to make me feel better on it works a whole bunch. But there are days the pain is just so excruciating I have to stay in bed and sleep. But I’m a fighter and I push myself again unless the pain is so excruciating. My diet is good very good there are a few things I have to stick to but nothing I can’t do just have to put my mind to it. Thanks again a whole bunch
I like your detail explanation in different types of pain. Amazing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I m suffering from parkinson's most days my hip and my body get stiff today I have exercise for hip and knee with you I find helpful thank you
Luv to watch your videos, I have learned so much. I was in a car accident and suffered whiplash and lower back pain. I was seen in the ER and sent home with a week of rest and anti-inflammatory prescription. After a few days I thought I was better(no sick days =no pay)and went back to work (welder) .After the second day back I started having back pain and some dissines but just took more pills and kept working 💪. After three weeks I could barely Walk and finally decided to see my doctor, he was shocked to see my condition and prescribed pre-gambalin twice a day with a muscle relaxant. Well after a month I was still having problems standing or sitting for more than a half hour. He then prescribed x-rays and MRI and added some Cymbalta. I can now walk and drive my car (for up to an hour). It's been six months since the accident and dealing with pain is the only thing I think of.
Just to say thank you for helping me understand the different things that are related to pain, your way of explaining things is a true blessing 🙌
I'm glad you like it.
I think you just gave me a potential and realistic reason for the suffering I have been going through for a few years.
Thank you for redirecting my approach to dealing with this.
I experience all but 2 symptoms you described.

Thank you so much. My doctor has never referred to Central Sensitization, although it has been referred to as Fibromyalgia. Also, just to say, thank you so very much for not having music on throughout your presentation. I appreciate it so much as, due to my symptoms, I'm unable to process information when there is too much going on (it becomes very stressful). I'm so glad I found your channel.. now I'm off to watch the other videos you mentioned in this one!
Are you any better
Thank you Dr. Andrea for sharing the info, God bless you and your family❤🌹🌹🌹

Subscribed. Your videos are always a great help to me. This video in particular resonates so strongly with me. I feel like I am in your clinic and you are addressing my problems personally. I certainly have Central Sensitization. I think of my pain as an orchestra. Once a certain part of my body starts to twitch or act up, slowly the string section will join or the wind section will come in, and soon the who orchestra is in full bloom. Such is the state of my pain problem. It reached such a hyper state, that even if I have a memory of some traumatic incident, the pain level shoots up.
I am seeing a pain specialist. She prescribed tramadol and gabapentin. After a second or third visit, the tramadol and gabapentin dosage is drastically reduced, citing kidney, liver, and what else side effects. I went for kidney, liver scans, and tests, all came back negative. She is now talking about meditation etc. I totally see where she is coming from, but the advice doesn't do much to ease my pain and improve my life. I know my condition is chronic and I'm trying to get through one day at a time.
I hope you get better soon and pease ask your doctor to make this diagnosis for you.
Thank you. What a wonderful teacher you are.

I've had 10 surgeries , 6 of them were orthopedic . There is no avoiding pain . My first one was 1980 . The reconstruction of my knee has never stopped hurting . 2008 distal bicep rupture and reattachment . 2017 full hip replacement still aches . 2021 long head bicep rupture and rotator cuff torn and repaired . All constant pain plus others , and I just live with it . I promise it is not all in my head .
How's your diet change ... Try blackseeds cure for every disease or black seed capsules.
Thank you for sharing Derek. Please ask your doctor to make this diagnosis for you.
@@DrAndreaFurlan I have had 22 surgeries since a bad car accident years ago and most recent was 10 months ago and this time I’m really having a hard time healing with the pain and I have been to so many specialists and no relief. I have had 5 foot reconstruction surgeries and facial reconstruction surgeries, just a few of the 22. My right side of my face is mostly wire and metal plates and now my hands are so painful, I can hardly use at times. I have tried exercise, physio, resting good didn’t and pain just gets worse each year.

I was just diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and Neuropathy on hands and feet. It will be 1 year in April of 2022. I have recently changed my eating style. I make sure to have fruits, vegetables, chicken, fish, seafood. I am only eating brown rice. I have whole wheat bread once a day. I they to get a lot of protein in my body. I have cut out Pepsi, junk food, fried foods. I dont eat pasta. I try to incorporate walking daily inside the school I work for early in the morning before students arrive. The halls are very long around the bldg. I try to get in 4 rounds. Sometimes I only do 3, if I am very sick with the pain and exhaustion. Everyday is a different sensation. I will have some good days where I will have pain but I don't feel extremely sick. I enjoy learning with your videos.

Thank you for your videos! They haven been very helpful after I received my diagnoses. I've been 1 year in now of chronic pain. Been walking alot and focusing mainly on movement. Only recently did a surgeon confirm central sensitization. Since then I've been exploring mind body practices. The pain had reduce 50% in the last 6 months. I'm keen to see how the combination of mind body practices & exercises will help me. Im a 33 year old male. Its been a tough journey so far. Hoping to get back to my old self (but with better mind set and fitness)
Very interesting very educational, thank You.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks so much for this amazing lecture
You have just described me. I’m astonished. I feel understood. I don’t go to the doctor anymore because no one has an answer except ‘ well you know you have arthritis’. They tell me to take more Tylenol. I feel like I’m having terrible pain in my legs and when I get relief it seems like I have terrible pain in another part of my body. I thought maybe fibromyalgia but I don’t know. It’s very confusing. I’ve had 3 1/2 parathyroids removed after 4 years of suffering with kidney stones. I was so surprised to hear you mention sensitivity to scents. I can’t be around any scents. It make me nauseous. Thank you so much. I hope at some point I can be helped. I can’t believe how you are identifying how even if a toothpick touched me it hurts. God bless you.

Thank you for this very informative explanation of central sensitization. I would like to suggest that, with certain traumas, limbic system impairment may require additional consideration in that CBT therapy and the other mindfulness practices you mention are extremely helpful as stand alone therapies, they may not be entirely enough because they do not address any underlying subconscious triggers linked to inflammatory trauma responses in the brain. Brain re-patterning exercises, such as found in a brain rewiring program like DNRS, could be best suited in that it encompasses all of the supportive modalities and works on all of them simultaneously and incrementally retrains the brain without triggering further inflammatory responses.
Thank you Laurie for this very helpful comments.

Yoga helps. My central desensitization shows up as sciatica. The surgical trauma response was the root cause I think; multiple surgeries for breast cancer destroyed and damaged miles of nerve activity mid chest that intervertebral interference. Everything went haywire! But long walks when I can, measured deep breathing, and intense floor yoga that counter poses the spine helps tremendously. Intermittent fasting too for some reason. Knowing this is somehow more comforting in ways that another surgery, I.e. hip replacement Could never be. Thank you 🙏🏾

DDD, Facet Joint Arthritis, Spondylesthesis L5 -S1, Disc Herniations L2. L3 (into the front and the rear !!), C4-C7 , Miltary Neck, Sacroilitis , arthritis in the Knees, Hips, and Fibromyalgia pains / tenderness Everywhere. This is the first Video I have seen with such total explanation. One of my Neurologists , 53 years in practice, said I have Peripheral Nerve Damage form the multiple levels of Spinal Compression. He recommended surgery, Consultation with 5 different Surgeons all said No Lumbar Surgery , maybe Cervical surgery if the pain becomes unbearable. Too much arthritis in the spine. I get Calf cramping, stabbing pains, tingling, in the arms and feet, on and off Saddle anethesia, and other "Strange Sensations". The list includes much of what you depicted in the beginning of the video. Interesting point, in 2011 , the 1st Cervical MRI I had ever conducted, the radiologist comments said that it appeared that I have a More Narrow than Normal Spinal canal.. I now wonder if that birth malady has contributed to the many ailments I face now. I am a 70 year old male, and a s an adult I was always over 200 lbs - to a max of 222 lbs (currently), but I always thought at 5 foot 11 inches in height I had a small neck : 15 to 16 inch for my size....

Thank you! 😃
Love you Doctor
Thanks.
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
I am so grateful for your videos. The thrust towards balance is so useful to me -- movement with rest, mindfulness with activity, take your time. I started the exercises for stenosis+ and, though I can't even get to the "easy" of 8 repetitions yet, I notice a difference just adding in once a week for starters. Have started the chair cycle -- that one is a keeper. Swimming again now that pools have reopened in the US. Do you have a video for back pain exercises in the water?
You are so welcome!

I think the same can be said for anxiety!
Excellent video madam on central sensitization its my favourite routine stuff used for all lbp fibromyalgia patients. 1) screening with csi questionaire 2) scoring to find mild moderate severe as per scores & symptomd 3) education about bottom up & top down phenomenon 4) cbt & emphasize on mindfullness. Its my routine physio to 90 percent central sensitisation madam.amazing good preparation explanation. Sorry for delayed comment

Toronto and Canada should be proud of you! Thinking outside the system’s box. Our world needs far more like you. PS maybe video on Boswellia? Also maybe pros/cons of corticosteroid injections would be of value? I’ve found arnica while fairly mild can help if other lotions/potions not tolerated. Thx so much.
Hi J MC, thank you. Please don't forget to subscribe to this channel.
It's actually inside of the box for everyone working with it but unfortunately not common knowledge. Here it is very well presented.

Outside the Canadian box.
Because I am 46 anything you mention to do with pain is associated with pain. I have Essential Thrombocythemia for the past 13 years and I have chronic pain. I wish dr's actually explained things like this like you do in not a patronizing way like you making things up. Thank you for these videos.
