Angel Patel is a 28-year-old software...
Angel Patel is a 28-year-old software developer who spends long hours at his desk. For the past six months, he has been experiencing a persistent, deep ache in his upper back and shoulders, accompanied by frequent tension headaches. The pain, which he initially dismissed as normal work stress, began to interfere with his sleep and concentration. His primary care physician in Internal Medicine diagnosed him with chronic myofascial pain syndrome, likely stemming from poor posture and repetitive strain. The doctor recommended a comprehensive treatment plan including targeted physical therapy, posture correction exercises, a short course of muscle relaxants, and stress management techniques. Angel was initially skeptical and frustrated, feeling his young body was 'failing' him. The physical therapy was challenging and sometimes painful, but he gradually learned exercises and ergonomic adjustments. After 8 weeks of consistent treatment, his pain has decreased by about 70%. He sleeps better and feels more present at work. Emotionally, he moved from frustration and denial to a sense of empowerment, realizing he could manage his health proactively rather than just enduring the pain.
