虽然大多数颞下颌关节紊乱病(TMD)是轻度和自限性的,但约10%的患者发展为与慢性疼痛相关的严重疾病。已经发现,与纤维肌痛(FM)相关的广泛疼痛、抑郁和睡眠障碍可能在TMD患者的慢性化中起重要作用。本文综述了TMD和FM的特点和关系,并讨论了两种疾病相似的机制和诊断和治疗策略如何表明它们之间存在密切的关系。
Although most cases of temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are mild and self-limiting, approximately 10% of patients develop severe disorders associated with chronic pain. It has been found that the widespread pain, depression, and sleep disorders associated with fibromyalgia (FM) may play a significant role in the chronicity of patients with TMD. This paper reviews the characteristics and relationship between TMD and FM and discusses how the similar mechanisms and diagnostic and treatment strategies for both disorders suggest that there is a close relationship between them.
