A member asked:
I have trigmenial neuropathy and my cheekbone looks swollen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
My response: You are very young, at age 22, to experience classic tic doulereux, or severe painful trigeminal problem, but a sensory neuropathy secondary to viral cause might cause semblance of swelling. If you do have pain, search for underlying Multiple Sclerosis, or another intracranial cause. Have a neurologist manage.
