Phonophobia and Hyperacusis: Practical Points from a Case Report
Asha’ari, Zamzil Amin; Zain, Nora Mat & Razali, Ailin
Abstract
Phonophobia and hyperacusis are two separate but closely related symptoms that are often
mistakenly used in clinical practice as the same entity. Here we present a case report to highlight the
distinguishing features of both and discuss the steps of management in these conditions. It is vital
for the attending doctors to recognise hyperacusis and phonophobia as different entities to manage
them successfully.
