[2] The opposite of a ganglionic blocker is referred to as a ganglionic stimulant. Some substances can exhibit both stimulating and blocking effects on autonomic ...
Self-administration of SPG blocks (SASPGB) is another method of delivering sphenopalatine blockade and indirect stellate ganglion blockade. Complications associated with a stellate ganglion block include Horner's syndrome , accidental intra-arterial or intravenous injection, difficulty swallowing , vocal cord paralysis, epidural spread of local ...
The greater palatine nerve is a branch of the pterygopalatine ganglion. This nerve is also referred to as the anterior palatine nerve , due to its location anterior to the lesser palatine nerve . It carries both general sensory fibres from the maxillary nerve , and parasympathetic fibers from the nerve of the pterygoid canal .
Sphenopalatine ganglion block has been used to treat post-dural-puncture headache, [2] though a 2020 trial comparing local anaesthetic sphenopalatine ganglion block to sham injection with saline failed to show difference in pain scores for those receiving local anaesthetic vs placebo, suggesting any efficacy is unrelated to local anaesthetic ...

[ citation needed ] Often chronic orofacial pain (lasting over 12 weeks) requires referral to a specialised branch of medicine or dentistry or continuation of treatment in a primary ...
The internal carotid plexus communicates with the trigeminal ganglion, the abducent nerve, and the pterygopalatine ganglion (also named sphenopalatine); it distributes filaments to the wall of the internal carotid artery, and also communicates with the tympanic branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve.
