myalgia myÂ·alÂ·giÂ·a (mÄ«-Äl'jÄ-É, -jÉ) n. Muscular pain or tenderness, especially when diffuse and nonspecific. Also called myodynia.
Myalgia translates to muscle pain. It is fair to say that most people experience one or two cases of the condition, at least, in a lifetime. Most often the pain is caused by straining or overuse of a muscle. It can occur in any muscle group, at any time of life. Myalgia that is not caused by muscle strain can be present in a large number of infectious diseases, anything from the common influenza to illnesses like Lyme disease.
