People push your buttons because they know they can, regardless of whether theyâre aware of it. What theyâre looking for is a negative reaction; they want you damaged and on the defensive, for whatever reason.
Horner syndrome is caused by damage to a certain pathway in the sympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system regulates heart rate, pupil size, perspiration, blood pressure and other functions that enable you to respond quickly to changes in your environment.
In general, appropriate treatment of Horner syndrome depends on the underlying cause. The goal of treatment is to eradicate the underlying disease process. In many cases, however, no effective treatment is known. Prompt recognition of the syndrome and expedient referral to appropriate specialists are vital.
