We report five cases of glucocorticoid-responsive mouth symptoms in polymyalgia rheumatica/giant cell arteritis (GCA); three cases of tongue pain exacerbated by hot/spicy food, a case of scalp pain made worse by eating hot/spicy food and a case of sore tongue as a presenting feature of GCA. These cases emphasize the importance of asking about mouth symptoms and changes in taste when evaluating patients with suspected GCA.
我们报告了5例风湿性多肌痛/巨细胞动脉炎（GCA）中糖皮质激素反应性口腔症状的病例；3例因辛辣食物导致舌痛加剧，1例因食用辛辣食物导致头皮疼痛加重，1例以舌痛为GCA的首发症状。这些病例强调了在评估疑似GCA患者时询问口腔症状和味觉变化的重要性。
