Members responded with empathy to someone experiencing sharp, radiating mouth and facial pain, with several suggesting it sounded like trigeminal neuralgia, a condition that causes intense, electric shock-like pain along the face. Community members shared helpful tips including applying ice wrapped in a washcloth, using heat, taking pain relievers like Advil, and trying a facial roller for relief. One member also mentioned that a medication called carbamazepine has been used for this condition, and encouraged the person to speak with their doctor about options.

Ouch, that totally sucks (no pun intended)! As the others have said, sounds like trigeminal neuralgia-try ice, heat, use Advil or another strong pain reliever. I use a facial roller to relieve the twinges in my cheeks.

It sounds like TN, trigeminal neuralgia, a chronic pain condition that causes intense, electric shock-like facial pain. I wish you better, @A MyMSTeam Member. We had a long sufferer on here with it. he finally stated that placing ice in a washcloth helped. Good Luck! 🤗

@A MyMSTeam Member, certainly sounds like Trigeminal neuralgia. I’ve had it a few times and it is the worst pain. There is medication you can try (carbamazapine). Hope it eases soon 🤗💜
