Yes I have knots all over back and shoulders. My best friend is a massage therapist and gives me a massage once a week. Some times it’s tolerabke other times it’s painful. But she releases the knots and it feels good.

I sometimes will get delayed pain if I get poked or even hugged.

Please have xrays or MRI to rule out other problems. If they
are negative then it is just fibro. Talk to your doctor. Heat helps a lot of people. Hydrotherapy(physical therapy in a warm pool) has helped a lot of people too
