First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether playing special music (solfeggio frequencies or Turkish classical tunes) during allergy skin tests could lower pain in children and anxiety in their parents. 120 children aged 2 to 17 took part. Parents reported their anxiety before and after the test, and children rated their pain. The goal was to see if music can make this common medical test less stressful for families.
