Dr. Furlan answers a question about what are the predisposing and precipitating factors for nociplastic pain (fibromyalgia). In this video she explains that adverse childhood adversities (ACEs) are important risk factors to develop health issues, including chronic pain and fibromyalgia. She also discusses some strategies to mitigate the negative effects of ACEs in children, so they do not become adults with chronic pain.
