However, there have been cases where Horner&#8217;s Syndrome has appeared after several years as a result of scar tissue building up on the nerve endings where the sympathetic nerve was cut, putting pressure on surrounding nerves and disrupting vital communication channels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\">For some lucky patients this does tend to fix itself after about 6-12 months.
