We present an unusual case of physical discomfort, as opposed to objective or subjective tinnitus, caused by a unilateral acoustic reflex. The cause of the discomfort was identified audiologically by the use of acoustic impedance audiometry. The dull pain that was elicited upon contraction and relaxation of the stapedius muscle was eliminated with sectioning of the stapedial tendon. No explanation of the mechanism for the pain is suggested at present.
