Patients with fibromyalgia (FM) have innumerable complaints due to the central amplification of somatic stimuli. The aim of this paper was to review the ear complaints in patients with FM.
A review of articles published in PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus from 1966 to June 2023 was performed.
Seventeen papers were included in the review. They showed that patients with FM have a higher hearing loss rate, mostly at high frequencies, and hyperacusis. The prevalence of vestibular symptoms (tinnitus, dizziness) and hyperacusis was higher than in the general population, reaching 87.0% of the sample. Subjective findings did not always correspond to objective results. In some studies, the degree of FM severity was associated with ear symptoms; in others, it was not.
Ear complaints in patients with FM are linked to subjacent disease and may be related to stimuli central amplification.
纤维肌痛（FM）患者因躯体刺激的中枢放大而有无数的主诉。本文的目的是回顾FM患者的耳部主诉。
对1966年至2023年6月在PubMed/MEDLINE、Embase、Web of Science和Scopus上发表的文章进行了综述。
该综述纳入了17篇论文。这些论文表明，FM患者的听力损失率更高，主要是高频听力损失，以及听觉过敏。前庭症状（耳鸣、头晕）和听觉过敏的患病率高于一般人群，在样本中达到87.0%。主观结果并不总是与客观结果相符。在一些研究中，FM的严重程度与耳部症状有关；而在另一些研究中则无关。
FM患者的耳部主诉与潜在疾病有关，可能与刺激的中枢放大有关。
