Muscle Pain
Muscle pain is another commonly reported symptom in gluten intolerance. There are many reasons why people with gluten intolerance often experience muscle and joint pain. Some scientists believe that they have a genetically determined over-excitable or over-sensitive nervous system. Thus, the threshold starts sensory neurons which cause pain in their joints and muscles is lower. In addition, gluten exposure might lead to inflammation in people with gluten sensitivity. This leads to widespread pain, in your muscles and joints alike. Make sure to consult your doctor before taking any OTC drugs, which would worsen the symptoms and lead to other serious complications in the future. [9]
