TREATMENT & PREVENTION
OF FREY’S SYNDROME
MEDICAL
1. Topical anticholinergic creams/lotions.
2. Intracutaneous injection of Botulinum toxin A.
SURGICAL
1. Transmeatal tympanic neurectomy.
2. Procedures which involve the interposition of a tissue barier (eg., fascia lata or fat grafts).
3. Sternocleidomastoid muscle flap.
