See a neurologist: When numbness is unpleasant, the term dysesthesia is used. is an unusual and frightening neurological disorder. The management will depend on the identified cause of facial pain. Dysesthesia can occur at any age. See a neurologist or orofacial pain specialist.

Men AND women: A dysesthesia is an alteration in any of the senses of the body especially that of touch. Commonly it is an unpleasant sensation produced by a normal stimulus. Neuralgia, however, is clearly a painful and BRIEF sensation which can be brought on by touch or other stimuli. INVESTIGATING IT'S CAUSE WHEN DISCOVERED SHOULD BE DONE IN MY OPINION in both men and women.
