Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) is medical condition mostly caused by work related occupations and working environment, affecting patients’ muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and nerves and developing over time. A community sample of 73 females and 32 males aged 85 and over underwent a standardised examination at home. Musculoskeletal pain was reported by 57% of those interviewed(1).

                      Fibromyalgia
According to the American College of Rheumatology 1990 Criteria for the Classification of Fibromyalgia in the newly proposed criteria for the classification of fibromyalgia are 1) widespread pain in combination with 2) tenderness at 11 or more of the 18 specific tender point sites(a) as a result in responding to pressure.

I. Symptoms
Symptoms of Fibromyalgia may be depending to the patient gender
In a study in a community and a clinic sample, researchers at the College of Medicine at Peoria, University of Illinois, showed that women experienced significantly more common fatigue, morning fatigue, hurt all over, total number of symptoms, and irritable bowel syndrome. Women had significantly more tender points. Pain severity, global severity and physical functioning were not significantly different between the sexes, nor were psychologic factors, eg, anxiety, stress, and depression. Gender differences have also been observed in other related syndromes, eg, chronic fatigue syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome, and headaches(1).

Other study suggested that gender differences have also been reported in other related syndromes such as tension headache, migraine, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome, and temporomandibular disorder(2).

Other symptoms may include widespread musculoskeletal pain, multiple “tender points”, fatigue, sleep disturbance, stiffness and other symptoms such as headache, dizziness, trouble with concentration, irritable bowel syndrome, urinary urgency, depression(3).

According to the American College of Rheumatolog Disordered sleep is such a prominent symptom in fibromyalgia, ithers include symptoms such aswaking unrefreshed, fatigue, tiredness, and insomnia in the 2010 diagnostic criteria for fibromyalgia(4).

3. Nuts and seeds Olive
Olive is belongs to the the family Oleaceae, native to the coastal areas of the eastern Mediterranean Basin and south end of the Caspian Sea. Its fruit, is also called the olive and the source of olive oil.

Olive Oil: Fat Content
1. Saturated fats
a. Palmitic acid
b. Stearic acid
c. Arachidic acid
d. ehenic acid
e. Myristic acid
f. Lignoceric acid
2. Unsaturated fat3. Monounsaturated fats
a. Oleic acid
b. Palmitoleic acid
3. Polyunsaturated fats
a. Linoleic acid
b. Linolenic acid

Monounsaturated fatty acids found abundantly in olive oil, may be beneficiary for reduced inflammation(362) and expression of lubricin to preserve the articular cartilage and then the entire joint, in rat model(362), as well as improving the disease associated loss of weight(363), such as osteoarthritis.
In a pilot double-blinded, randomized, clinical trial of topical virgin olive oil versus piroxicam gel in osteoarthritis of the knee, conducted by Ardabil University of Medical Science, researchers showed that the use of  olive oil in the experiment is more effective than medical gel for knee osteoarthritis, probably due to its phytochemiocals oleuropein and hydroxy tyroso(364).
Other in the study of fruit and vegetable antioxidants of simple and polyphenols, showed that olive vegetation water (OVW) and its combination with glucosamine exhibit anti inflammatory processes, and may be considered as an effective therapyfor treatment of rheumatoid and osteoarthritis(365).In mechanical inflammatory arthritis (osteoarthritis, OA), The Olive leaf extract (OLE) also inhibit inflammatory process, including ear edema, myeloperoxidase (MPO) production, and may be beneficiary for the treatment of OA in humans(366).

2. Cold water fish Salmon
Salmon is the common name for Salmonidae. They are anadromous, born in fresh water, migrate to the ocean, then travel thousands of miles in the deep sea cold water throughout their life cycle and within to five years returning to the exacted location where they were born to reproduce and die.

Nutrients
1. Protein
2. Omega-3 fatty acids
3. B vitamins
4. Vitamin D
5. Astaxanthin
is a potent antioxidant that stimulates the development of healthy fish nervous systems and enhances the fish's fertility and growth rate.
6. Selenium
7. Tryptophan
8. Magnesium
9. Phosphorus
10. Etc.

Intake of salmon calcitonin, a hormone produced by the thyroid gland of salmon or a synthetic polypeptide of the same sequence found in salmon(360) has shown to reduce OA pathogenesis and bone resorption, according to the study of 10 7-month-old female Sprague Dawley rat model by Nordic Bioscience A/S at Danmark(354) and counteract of type II collagen (CII), degradation and related surface erosions of articular cartilage in ovariectomized rat model(355), probably through the effects of subchondral trabecular bone changes and on osteoarthritic cartilage lesions(356). The change of both markers of bone and cartilage degradation in osteoarthritis has made salmon calitonin a potential new treatment opportunities for OA(358).
In treatment of symptomatic knee osteoarthritis, intake of salmon calcitonin showed an effect on sum of pain, function, stiffness, and total scores, the biomarkers of bone and joint metabolism but not in patients with symptomatic knee OA(357), according to 2 phase of 3 trials study by Nordic Bioscience, Denmark.
According to the Université Catholique de Louvain, oral salmon calcitonin, also improved functional disability and reduced levels of biomarkers of which can predict of joint space narrowing induced cartilage loss(359). 
The high amount of Omega 3 fatty acid also make salmon of the dietary nutrients for the modulation of inflammation and metabolic health including prevention reduced risk of progression of osteoarthritis(361).

Gout mostly effected one joint is defined as a acute and recurrent condition of arthritis as a result of uric acid builds up in blood cause of joint inflammation.

VI. Treatments
B. In herbal medicine perspective
1. Artichoke
In the study to investigate the efficacy of Artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) leaveshistorically used for the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout, showed that ALE inhibited XO with only minimal inhibitory action (< 5 %) at 100 microg/mL. However, when selected compounds were tested, the caffeic acid derivatives revealed a weak XO inhibitory effect with IC (50) > 100 microM. From the tested flavones the aglycone luteolin potently inhibited XO with an IC (50) value of 1.49 microM. Luteolin 7-O-glucoside and luteolin 7-O-glucuronide showed lower XO inhibition activities with IC (50) values of 19.90 microM and 20.24 microM, respectively. However, oral administration of an aqueous ALE, luteolin, and luteolin 7-O-glucoside did not produce any observable hypouricemic effects after acute oral treatment in potassium oxonate-treated rats. After intraperitoneal injection of luteolin a decrease in uric acid levels was detected suggesting that the hypouricemic effects of luteolin are due to its original form rather than its metabolites produced by the gut flora. In conclusion, an aqueous ALE, caffeic acid derivatives and flavones exerted XO inhibitory effects in vitro but a hypouricemic activity could not be confirmed after oral administration(22).

2. Green teas
Researchers suggested that although no direct molecular target has been so far elucidated for Epigallo catechin-O-gallate (EGCG), the multi-potentialities of this molecule, along with its broad bioavailability, render it very attractive as a putative curative drug for various diseases such as dermatosis, gout, atherosclerosis and cancer, as Green tea anti-oxidant properties could explain its antagonistic action in some inflammatory processes(23).

3. Alfalfa
In the article by By jeffwend, the author wrote that Alfalfa can help to increase uric acid levels in the urine which can help reduce the amount of uric acid available to crystallize…. And the spice turmeric and the enzyme bromelain work well together to reduce inflammation(24).

4. Devil’s claw
Harpagoside, a Glycoside, the chemical, principle extracted from the Devil’s Claw root, contributes the natural anti-inflammatory properties and used as a Gout remedy and other painful disorders of the Musculoskeletal system(25).

5. Purple Sweet Potato
In the study to investigate the hypouricemic effects of anthocyanin extractsfrom purple sweet potato (APSP), and allopurinol, on serum uric acid levels in hyperuricemic mice, was found that administration of a single oral dose of 100 mg/kg APSP to such animals reduced the serum uric acid concentration to 4.10 ± 0.04 mg/dL, compared with a concentration of 10.25 ± 0.63 mg/dL in the hyperuricemic control group(26).

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) is medical condition mostly caused by work related occupations and working environment, affecting patients’ muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and nerves and developing over time. A community sample of 73 females and 32 males aged 85 and over underwent a standardised examination at home. Musculoskeletal pain was reported by 57% of those interviewed(1).

                                                          Gout

Gout mostly effected one joint is defined as a acute and recurrent condition of arthritis as a result of uric acid builds up in blood cause of joint inflammation.

V. The Treatment
A. In conventional medicine perspective
A.1. Acetaminophen
a. Acetaminophen such as Tylenol can help to relive the pain of Gout.
b. Side effects if overdose are not limit to
b.1. Nausea and vomiting
b.2. Appetite loss
b.3. Sweating
b.4. Diarrhea
b.5. Irritability
b.6. Abdominal pain
b.7. Etc.

A.2. In the study of Gout–what are the treatment options? indicated that The options available for the treatment of acute gout (18)are

1. NSAIDs
a. NSAIDs are commonly prescribed to control gout attacks in patients with hyperuricaemia.
b. Side effects are not limit to
Dr. Bjarnason I, and the research team at King’s College School of Medicine and Dentistry, in the study of Side effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on the small and large intestine in humans, showed that Ingested NSAIDs may cause a nonspecific colitis (in particular, fenemates), and many patients with collagenous colitis are taking NSAIDs. Large intestinal ulcers, bleeding, and perforation are occasionally due to NSAIDs. NSAIDs may cause relapse of classic inflammatory bowel disease and contribute to serious complications of diverticular disease (fistula and perforation). NSAIDs may occasionally cause small intestinal perforation, ulcers, and strictures requiring surgery. NSAIDs, however, frequently cause small intestinal inflammation, and the associated complications of blood loss and protein loss may lead to difficult management problems. The pathogenesis of NSAID enteropathy is a multistage process involving specific biochemical and subcellular organelle damage followed by a relatively nonspecific tissue reaction. The various possible treatments of NSAID-induced enteropathy (sulphasalazine, misoprostol, metronidazole) have yet to undergo rigorous trials(19).

2. Colchicine
a. Colchicine, used for a long period in gout, was approved for the first time in 2009 by the FDA for the prophylaxis and the treatment of acute attack, on the basis of a pivotal trial that showed the efficacy in the very short term – that is 24 h of a well-tolerated, low-dose regimen of Colcrys (colchicine, URL Pharma, Philadelphia, USA) to reduce pain in patients with acute gout – when given early(20).
b. Side effects are not limit to
1. Diarrhea
2. Dizziness
3. Flushing
4. Hair loss
5. Headache
6. Loss of appetite
7. Nausea; sore gums
8. Stomach pain
9. Vomiting
10. Etc.

3. Corticosteroids
a. researchers suggested that Systemic corticosteroids could be used in severe polyarticular flares. Anti-IL1 should provide a therapeutic alternative for severe cortico dependant gout with tophus. To prevent acute flares and reduce tophus volume, uric acid serum level should be reduced and maintained below 60mg/L (360μmol/L).
b. Side effects are not limit to
b.1. Stomach irritation
b.2. Rapid heartbeat
b.3. Nausea
b.4. Insomnia
b.5. A metallic taste in the mouth
b.6. Etc.

4. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and
a. In the study of Effects of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in gout by Alexander B. Gutman, M.D.1, T.F. Yü, M.D indicated that ACTH effected a very rapid and satisfactory response in the local and systemic manifestations of acute gout in seven of eleven cases treated, including one patient refractory to colchicine. ACTH therefore appears to be a useful agent in the therapy of acute gout. In many of these patients, however, ACTH was not convincingly superior to colchicine, and in four instances colchicine terminated attacks responding unsatisfactorily to ACTH. Unlike colchicine, ACTH is not suitable for prophylactic use in the prevention of acute gouty attacks(20).
b. Side effects are not limit to
In the study of 162 children with infantile spasms were treated with ACTH at the Children’s Hospital, Helsinki, and at the Aurora Hospital, Helsinki, during 1960–76. In a large proportion (37%) of the children the treatment causedpronounced side effects, and the mortality was 4.9%. The most common complications were infections: septic infections, pneumonias, and urinary and gastrointestinal infections. Other side effects were arterial hypertension (11), osteoporosis (2), hypokalaemic alkalosis (2), and other marked electrolyte disturbances (10). In children necropsy showed fresh intracerebral haemorrhages. Four children developed oliguria and hyperkalaemia during and after withdrawal of ACTH. One of them had tubular necrosis confirmed by renal biopsy. Infections were significantly more common with large doses (120 units) of ACTH than with small ones (40 units). It is concluded that side effects, even severe ones, are more common during treatment than had been assumed(21).

5. Intra-articular corticosteroids
a. Intraarticular steroid injections are injected directly into an affected joint to improve joint function.
b. Side effects are not limit to
b.1. Infection
b.2. Facial flushing
b.3. Local skin atrophy and depigmentation
b.4. Crystalline synovitis
b.5. Allergic reaction
b.6. Uterine haemorrhage
b.7. Etc.
The most important determinant of therapeutic success is not which anti-inflammatory agent is chosen, but rather how soon therapy is initiated and that the dose be appropriate.
b. Side effects are not limit to
b.1. Constipation
b.2. Diarrhea
b.3. Dizziness
b.4. Drowsiness
b.5. Headache
b.6. Heartburn
b.7. Nausea
b.8. Stomach upset
b.9. Etc.

7. Etc.
