Unlikely TN: Constant pain and short duration is against TN. Most likely the pain is from jaw, teeth, sinus, gum or TMJ (the jaw joint in front of the ear). 50 mg Tramadol is very low dose. Go with anti inflammatory medications (NSAIDS) like Ibuprofen, Motrin, Advil, Aleve, (naproxen) and Naproxen. If no stomach issue, take up to max dose given by manufacturer. Get examined by your primary MD
