Crawling sensation on face and tinnitus for 3 months after using a beard trimmer with no guard. recent hsv1 exposure but neg igg @ 4 months. causes?

Odd: the beard trimmer may not have caused the symptoms. You describe a neuralgia or inflammation of nerves. Your doctor should attempt to find the problem. There are medicines to help you. You may have a trigeminal neuralgia which usually affects only one side of your face. Good luck. Happy healing.
