Oral PathologyAuriculotemporal syndrome (Freys syndrome) consists of flushing, warmth, and perspiration over the cheek and pinna following ingestion of highly seasoned food. This occurs due to aberrant reinnervation of sweat glands by parasympathetic fibers that normally innervate the parotid gland, typically following parotid surgery or trauma. Fanonis, Horners, and Cushings syndromes do not involve this gustatory sweating phenomenon.

Physiology
The enteric nervous system is the intrinsic nervous system of the gastrointestinal tract and is responsible for the regulation of digestion and other gastrointestinal functions. It can operate independently of the central nervous system and consists of a network of neurons and glial cells that are embedded within the wall of the gut, coordinating local reflexes and influencing the muscle and secretory activities of the digestive system.
