A member asked:
Is left index finger pain a sign of atypical trigeminal neuralgia on the left side of face?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not at all: The finger pain is fully independent of your trigeminal issues, and represents an additional co-morbidity. A hand specialist can more fully evaluate.
