A person with Fibromyalgia can be sore or tender anywhere. There are eighteen specific "tender points" that were the basis of a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia until 2010. These tender points are spread throughout the body, in the head, neck, shoulders, arms, back, hips and legs. The "tender points" are not the only areas that may be tender or sore if someone has Fibromyalgia, they are just the ones that were used for diagnosis.
