what is the tympanic branch? what does it supply?
is sensory to the tympanic cativy where it suppplies the middle ear
affernt fibres project to the spinal trigeminal nucleus
parasympathetic fibres of the tympanic nerve originate form the infeiror salivatory nucles ( part of the nuclei of the CN 9) and continue form the tympnaic plexus in the middle ear as the lesser petrosal nerve (the part of the typmanic nerve that is parasympathetic) to the otic gangion which which postgangionic fibres run in the auriculotemporal nerve (branch of the mandibular nerve v3) to supply the parotid gland.
