In addition to a headache, any of us can develop facial pain. We will understand facial pain as pain that is found in our face and the limbus of the face that connects with our cranial vault.<\/p>\n
Some headaches can radiate or travel to the face and vice versa.<\/p>\n
Face\/face\/facial pain may have a non-neurological origin, but by abusing the complex and interconnected neurological system of the head and neck, the pain can be severe.<\/p>\n
It is important that as a patient, you are able to describe the symptoms to your doctor in detail because facial pain, as we mentioned before, can have several causes, and due to the complex neuronal connection existing in the head, its diagnosis can be confusing or complicated.<\/p>\n
A common cause may be pure neuralgia. Nerve irritation or exaggerated excitation of the nerve due to overstimulation or previous infection, leaving the nerve sensitive, triggering constant pain impulses.<\/p>\n
Another cause, although less common, may be compression by tumors, inflammatory tissue or abnormal vascular tissue.<\/p>\n
One of the common causes in practice, although not frequently reported or recorded, is dental problems. These problems usually arise from all subspecialties of dentistry, including orthodontics (malocclusion problems), endodontics (cavities) or those related to diseased gums*. All facial pain must be completely protocolized, with a precise and sometimes thorough dental assessment. Sleep disorders such as bruxism can be a heraldic symptom of these diseases.<\/p>\n
In some cases, jaw pain may be the only symptom. And although it has an atypical presentation, when this pain is related to exercise or stress, it can be the first symptoms of a heart attack.<\/p>\n
