This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of allergic comorbidities in patients with FM compared with a matched control group. We conducted a retrospective, population-based case-control study within Leumit Health Services, which caters to ∼750,000 members.

The skin is a large and sophisticated organ populated by innate and adaptive immune effector cells. These immune cells provide a critical first line of defense against pathogens, but genetic and environmental factors can lead to inappropriate signaling that may manifest as hypersensitivity. The most common cutaneous allergic disorders in children include atopic dermatitis, urticaria/angioedema, and contact dermatitis.
