Myalgia

Myalgia is the medical term for muscle pain. Muscle aches and pains are common and usually related to tension, overuse, or injury from exercise or strenuous work.

Muscle aches also are a symptom of some diseases, including infections like the flu and auto-immune conditions such as fibromyalgia or lupus.
