🔍 10 Signs You Might Have Inflammation

Your body is always communicating. Functional medicine helps us listen closely and connect the dots. Here are 10 signs your body might be telling you something:

• You feel tired even after a full night of sleep

• Digestive discomfort like bloating, constipation, or irregularity is a regular issue

• Joint pain or stiffness shows up, especially when it seems to move or flare unexpectedly

• Reactive Skin. Things like acne, rashes, redness, or dryness that lingers

• Mood feels unsteady. Anxiety, irritability, or sadness without a clear cause can creep up

• Disrupted Sleep. You struggle to fall asleep, stay asleep, or often wake in the early hours

• Weight changes without explanation, especially around your midsection

• You crave sugar, carbs, or salty snacks more than usual

• Focus is harder. Your memory feels fuzzy

• You get sick often or take longer than expected to recover

These might seem unrelated, but more often than not, they share a common root: chronic inflammation. If several of these sound familiar, you’re not alone.

These are not random symptoms. They’re signals.

Let’s uncover what your body is really asking for and create a path toward lasting relief.

Do you have achy joints, but your scans say everything’s “normal”?

That doesn’t mean the pain is in your head. It might just be coming from a different source.

For many of my patients, joint pain isn’t caused by structural damage. It’s driven by systemic inflammation.

If your pain…
🦴 Moves from one joint to another
🍅 Gets worse after certain foods
💤 Flares when you’re under stress or sleep-deprived
❔️ Comes and goes without a clear reason

…there’s a good chance it’s inflammatory, not mechanical.

This is something I see often, especially in women navigating autoimmune symptoms or lingering effects from chronic viral illness. Conventional medicine might overlook it because your labs or scans look “fine.” But at Asheville Functional Medicine, I know that “fine” doesn’t always feel fine.

📅 Let’s dig deeper together.

Health issues are rarely caused by just one trigger.

It’s not just stress. Or just hormones. Or just your gut.

It’s often a layered mix of infections, toxins, gut imbalances, genetics, and other systemic pieces. Each one playing a role over time.

The key to healing isn’t chasing symptoms. It’s gently peeling back the layers to uncover what’s really driving it.

That’s where personalized care makes all the difference.

Think you'd know if your gut was inflamed?

👉 Not always.

Gut inflammation doesn’t always show up as bloating or stomach pain. Sometimes, it looks like fatigue, skin breakouts, brain fog, or mood swings.

Your gut plays a bigger role in your overall health than most people realize. If something feels off, your gut might be trying to tell you something.

What does Root Cause really mean in functional medicine?

When it comes to what is happening in your body, it’s rarely just one thing.

It’s not just “you have IBS” or “your labs or normal” or "go see XYZ specialist for that issue"

Instead, we ask: Why?

Root causes are the underlying imbalances that are often layered and connected within the body. These imbalances set the stage for illness.

Think: chronic infections, gut dysfunction, toxic exposures, hormonal shifts, stress, nutrient deficiencies, and even genetics.

Peeling back these layers takes time and the right support, but it’s how we move beyond symptom management and toward true healing.

✨ This is the difference between treating a diagnosis vs. treating you.

Cinco de Mayo is around the corner—and if you’re skipping the margarita but still craving something festive, this one’s for you.

Not all thyroid tests tell the full story.

If you’ve ever been told “your labs are normal” but you still don’t feel well, you’re not alone.

Functional thyroid testing digs deeper—looking beyond TSH to assess the whole hormone pathway. That includes Free T3, Reverse T3, and antibodies that might be quietly impacting how you feel.

Be sure to get answers that match your symptoms.
