I got bells palsy in december (had a mri)and have healed physically. i still get the terrible pains in the back of the head sometimes. is this normal?

HA post Bells: May be post inflammatory neuralgia, since many times bells palsy is due to inflammation of the 7th nerve (facial nerve). Otc Motrin or advil (ibuprofen) for a few days may help reduce the inflammation and headache, if not, see your doc.
