What can cause periodic excruciating bouts of facial nerve pain randomly occurring?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Trigeminal neuralgia: it sounds like you're suffering from trigeminal neuralgia. This is a condition, in which there is inflammation of the nerve going to the face which transmits pain, causing spontaneous..pain. At your age, I would get this checked out. It maybe just do the virus.
