Facial Pain (Trigeminal Neuralgia) - Symptoms

The pain, which comes and goes, feels like bursts of sharp, stabbing, electrical shocks involving the cheek, nose, upper lip or the jaw. In almost all cases (more than 95%), pain will be restricted to one side of your face. This pain can last from a few seconds to a few minutes. Common daily activities such as eating, drinking or brushing the teeth can bring on the pain.
