    Intractable sneezing, often unresponsive to medication, can stem from psychogenic causes. Identifying the psychological trigger successfully resolved the persistent symptoms in this case study.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychosomatic Medicine
    • Neurology

    Background:

    • Intractable sneezing presents a significant clinical challenge.
    • Pharmacologic interventions often fail to provide adequate relief for persistent sneezing episodes.

    Observation:

    • A patient presented with severe, intractable sneezing.
    • The sneezing was unresponsive to maximal pharmacologic treatment.

    Findings:

    • A specific psychogenic cause was identified as the underlying etiology.
    • Resolution of the sneezing symptoms occurred upon identification and addressing of the psychogenic factor.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering psychogenic factors in refractory sneezing.
    • Suggests that targeted psychological interventions may be effective where pharmacotherapy fails.
