It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see a doctor, preferably a neurologist. Wish you good health!

Head and facial pain is not an unusual sequelae from closed head trauma, but it would be quite rare to develop true trigeminal neuralgia per se. Not clear from your post, if you have seen a neurologist or a neurosurgeon, but if not, would highly recommend.
