    The patient's tonsils were not inflamed and he had no difficulty swallowing, indicating the glossopharyngeal nerve was functioning normally. However, the patient was unable to speak clearly, suggesting an issue with the vagus nerve. He also could not shrug his shoulders against resistance, showing a problem with the spinal accessory nerve, while the hypoglossal nerve seemed fine as the patient's tongue movement was normal.
