In my recent visit to my plastic surgeon, I mentioned in passing that the back of my neck felt tight. He responded by telling me that they had to use part of my "Trap" muscle to cover up a section of my skull where the bone was removed. I am 2+ years post op and never knew! I always just assumed that the tightness was somehow related to my facial paresis issues. I am not upset because it was no doubt necessary at the time. My husband said that he did not remember it either. I wonder if they can Botox my Trap. I have a call in now to find out.

Huh, that IS interesting...I also found it interesting that for middle fossa surgeries, they have to cut a jaw muscle to get to the skull where they punch that hole. It took me a few weeks afterward to be able to fully open my mouth again! :)
