Otolaryngology encompasses the most densely enervated and neurologically interconnected region in the body. Pathology in one area can manifest as pain/symptoms in others. Some challenging patients present with atypical pain that defies lesion identification and which requires treatment by manipulation of neural physiology itself. We will explore the physiology of the trigeminal and upper cervical nerves, learn how interrupting transmission temporarily from individual branches to bring relief, review anatomy and technique for blocks of the supraorbital and supratrochlear nerves, V2, preauricular, and occipital nerves and the sphenopalatine ganglion, and review techniques of Botox injection.
