why does pain make you exhausted?

193 views

Is it the feeling of pain or is it the thing that is making the pain? My example is fibromyalgia where there is extreme pain/cramping. Is the thing causing the cramping and pain making me exhausted or the constant feeling of pain?

Pain comes from nerves firing which uses energy. There’s also the mental toll of pain which like doing anything mentally difficult will make you tired.
