47
Q

If a patient has swelling/infection of the parotid gland, what symptom might you expect to see other than decrease in salivation?

a) loss of sensation on the midface
b) dilation of facial vein branches
c) weakness in biting
d) pain in the midface
e) diminished facial expression

A

e) diminished facial expression

  • facial nerve and origins of its branches are close to the gland and could be compressed (this nerve controls facial movements/expressions)*
  • a/d would be due to maxillary branch of trigeminal, not close to the parotid gland*
  • b is wrong because facial vein does not pass through parotid gland*
  • c is innervated by the mandibular nerve, not close to parotid gland*
