Psychosomatic Symptoms Disorder

Psychosomatic symptoms disorder is a psychological condition that leads to physical symptoms, often without any medical explanation, and can affect almost any part of the body. People with the disorder tend to seek frequent medical attention, and become frustrated when they're constantly dismissed without a diagnosis. This is because the source of their symptoms are purely psychological and not a physical issue or dysfunction.

Psychosomatic disorder can affect almost any part of the body, and symptoms differ from one person to another. Common symptoms include fatigue, insomnia, muscle pain and back pain, high blood pressure, trouble breathing, indigestion, headaches and migraines, skin rash, and some more.
