A member asked:
Is it true that infraorbital nerve irritation caused by maxillary sinuses can develop into full blown trigeminal neuralgia if not taken care of?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No. I haven't heard of true trigeminal neuralgia developing after sinus infection. Take care of sinus infection. See ENT doc.
