Psychosomatic influence
Psychosomatic influence refers to the interaction between mental state and physical symptoms. It means that emotional, psychological, or social stress can manifest through physical symptoms that have no obvious organic cause. Specifically, psychosomatic symptoms can include headaches, sleep disturbances, chronic fatigue, back pain, dyspepsia (digestive disorders), and other stress-related issues such as diarrhea or palpitations.
Common psychosomatic symptoms:
Headaches (especially tension headaches)
Back pain
Sleep problems
Chronic fatigue
Digestive issues (e.g., pyrosis, diarrhea)
Palpitations
These symptoms are frequently observed in medical practice and are among the most common reasons for patients seeking medical attention. Psychosomatic symptoms are often closely linked to emotional or psychological states and can arise due to stress or emotional overload. At the same time, it is important for healthcare providers to distinguish psychosomatic symptoms from organic illnesses, as the treatment of such conditions requires a comprehensive approach that considers both physical and psychological aspects of health.
