    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Neurology
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Frey's syndrome is a common sequela of parotid gland surgery or injury.
    • It presents as gustatory sweating and facial erythema during mastication.
    • While prevalent (50-60% post-surgery), only 10% find symptoms distressing.

    Observation:

    • A specific case of Frey's syndrome is detailed.
    • The patient experienced significant relief using topical scopolamine and atropine creams.
    • This highlights the potential of noninvasive therapeutic approaches.

    Findings:

    • Topical anticholinergic creams demonstrate efficacy in managing Frey's syndrome.
    • Scopolamine and atropine creams provided good symptom control in the reported case.
    • Noninvasive treatments appear suitable for addressing gustatory sweating.

    Implications:

    • Topical anticholinergic therapy offers a viable, noninvasive treatment option for Frey's syndrome.
    • This approach may improve the quality of life for patients experiencing distressing gustatory sweating.
    • Further research into noninvasive therapies for Frey's syndrome is warranted.
