Members discussed whether daith piercings (a small cartilage piercing in the inner ear fold) might help with fibromyalgia pain, though most acknowledged the primary claim relates to migraines rather than widespread fibro symptoms. Several members shared mixed personal experiences, with one reporting their daughter's migraines almost completely stopped after getting the piercing, while another member who tried piercings in both ears found no relief for either migraines or fibromyalgia pain, and a third experienced multiple infections that never properly healed. A recurring theme was cautious curiosity, with members seeking more information while expressing concern about infection risk and skepticism about how a localized piercing could address the widespread pain characteristic of fibromyalgia.

What is daith piercing?
A daith piercing is a piercing through the smallest fold of cartilage in your ear, right at the point where the outer ridge that runs along the top of your ear connects to your inner ear, just above the ear canal. Because it’s a small, curvy piece of cartilage, it can sometimes be hard to pierce, and once it’s done, most people don’t change the jewelry often. It can take months to heal and can easily become infected if not pierced or cared for correctly. Still, some people with migraine have reported that their daith piercing resulted in reduced pain during migraine attacks, leading others to seek out the piercings exclusively for their potential to reduce migraine pain. It’s important to note, however, that any reported results are widely believed to be placebo.

Im not sure how this would relate to widespread fibro pain and I would be afraid of infection. This is just my personal opinion.
