!Pharynx
!!Anatomy
The pharynx is the part of the neck and throat situated immediately posterior to the mouth and nasal cavity and cranial or superior to the esophagus, larynx and trachea. It is part of the ((Digestive - System Overview|digestive system)) and ((Respiratory - System Overview|respiratory system)). The human pharynx is conventionally divided into three sections: __((Respiratory - Nasopharyngeal Mucosa |Nasopharynx)); Oropharynx; Hypopharynx__.
It is lined with mucosa that has ((Respiratory - Lungs - Bronchial Goblet Cells|goblet cells)) for __mucus production__, as well as ((Digestive - Intestinal Lymphatic Tissue|lymphatic tissue)) with __immune functions__. It has a layer of ((Musculoskeletal - Skeletal Muscles|striated voluntary muscle)) for __swallowing__.

!!Brain
In the __Brain Stem__, the primeval ring structure is reflected: organ tissue relays with assimilative and digestive functions from oesophagus to small intestines are situated in the right brain stem, while excretory organs from caecum to rectum are relayed in the left brain stem. Medial on both sides are the relays of mouth/pharynx, middle ears and lacrimal glands, as well as the pineal and pituitary glands and the thyroid.

!!Mind
!!!Theme:
1. (BS) Assimilation, swallowing down or spit out
2. (CC) Not want, can, or be allowed to swallow or spit out
3. (CM) Self-devaluation regarding assimilating, dismissing and decision

!!!Emotions and Thoughts:
1. (BS) __Attention, greed__:
*I need to incorporate that!
*I need to get rid of that now!
2. (CC) __Indignation, injustice, resistance__
*Why can't I have that?
*I want what they have!
*I don't want to eat/accept that!
*It chokes me!
3. (CM) __Self-doubt, frustration__
*I can't get rid of that!
*I can't seem to acquire that.
*I'm not good enough to manage this.
!!!META-Meaning:
I get everything I need, and don't bother with the rest.
I can easily decide what is best for me, and communicate that clearly.

!!Organ
!!!Stress Phase Symptoms:
1. (Endo) Increased function of mucus production, slow cell proliferation as compact or flat growing reabsorptive tumor of the pharynx. Possible diagnoses: __Pharynx polyps, adenocarcinoma__.
This can lead to penetration of the sensitive mucosa and will then be felt as __canker sores__ and cracked skin inside the mouth, which are painful at the borders of the affection.
2. (Ecto) Hyperesthesia (ectodermal pharynx mucosa belongs to the "Inner Skin" Pattern), therefore irritation, __harrumphing, coughing__; painful ulceration without inflammation, motoric swallowing paralysis, choking.

!!!Regeneration Phase Symptoms:
1. (Endo) Normalization of secretion and reabsorption, microbial decomposition of excess tissue with fungi, mycobacteria and lymphatic cells. Nightly sweat and light fever. Mouth odor and white or yellowish plaque. Productive foul-tasting cough with pus. Possible diagnoses: __pharygitis__, fungal infections of the throat (mycoses), __diphteria__.
2. (Ecto) Hypesthesia and tissue repair, possibly tumor formation when excessive. Possible diagnosis: __pharynx carcinoma__. Motoric: shovewise normalization. 

!!!Healing Peak:
1. (Endo) Chills, cough for hours
2. (Ecto) Short burst of coughing, absence possible

!!!Biological Meaning:
1. (Endo) Due to the improved mucus production and reabsorption, the food can be easily assimilated and passed on.

2. (Ecto) Irritation, cough or muscle paralysis take over the decision and responsibility to accept or dismiss.

!!Social
!!!Examples:
Survival:
*A boy gets his wish granted and visits the fair. After a day full of excitement and joy he gets pharyngitis.

*A family wants to buy a property, but the bank refused to give a loan and they have a long time of discussion. The woman develops candidosis in the pharynx.

Social:
*The client shows constant harrumphing and coughing. He finds it hard to decide, has stress with officials and feels he is not taken seriously.

!!Additional Information
Endodermal tissue itself has no sensitive innervation and processes do not create pain unless they affect sensitive ectodermal tissue.

!!!Constellations
1. (Endo) __Brain Stem Constellation__ possible: perplexity, consternation, reduced movement. Purpose: new orientation

3. (Muscle, Lymph) __Decisionmaking-Megalomania__ possible: manager, broker, quick and effective decisions

!!!Differential Diagnosis:

__((Respiratory - Larynx Mucosa |Larynx Mucosa))__ (Cerebral Cortex  -/+) Regeneration phase (after social fear): hyperesthesia, dry cough, depression possible

__((Respiratory - Branchial Arches Pharyngeal Ducts|Branchial Arches))__ (Cerebral Cortex -/+) Stress phase (frontal fear/powerlessness): slight dragging pain in sides of the neck; Regeneration phase: cysts in the neck and mediastinum, may be diagnosed as Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.

__((Digestive - Tonsils|Tonsils))__ (Brain Stem, Cerebral Medulla) Stress phase (assimilation, choice): Polyps or adenocarcinoma; Regeneration phase: Tonsillitis or adenopharyngitis 

__((Respiratory - Nasopharyngeal Mucosa |Respiratory Epithelium))__ (BS +/-) Stress (assimilation and filtration of air and information): increased mucus production; Regeneration phase: purulent degradation, productive cough
