Salivary ducts

There are several salivary glands and glands with associated ducts in the mouth and pharynx. The largest salivary glands are the parotid glands under the ears, the sublingual glands beneath the tongue, and the submandibular glands beneath the lower jaw. But there are also smaller glands in which programs can run. They all have the same theme and are treated together here.

Sensitivity follows the gullet mucosa pattern.

Whether it involves the left or right side of the mouth depends on biological laterality.

Themes

Not wanting or not being allowed te eat, to get something into the mouth.

Also metaphorically: 

• Wanting something but not getting it 
• Having something forced upon you but not wanting it

CA phase

Functional increase. Decrease of cells in lining of salivary ducts.

Biological purpose

Wider ducts to allow more saliva to flow through.

Symptoms

With intense conflict: painful salivary ducts.

PCL phase

Reconstruction of lining of the ducts.

Symptoms

Mumps. Clogging of ducts due to healing swelling. Congestion and the syndrome causes additional swelling. No pain. Location of swelling indicates which salivary gland(s) is (are) involved.
