  • Title: Facial pain.
    Author: Graff-Radford SB.
    Journal: Neurologist; 2009 Jul; 15(4):171-7. PubMed ID: 19590376.
    Abstract:
    Facial pain is a debilitating disorder if left untreated. Too often, patients are labeled as having psychopathology when face pain etiology is unclear. These patients are categorized as "atypical," "idiopathic," or "psychogenic." Cases of facial pain involving neuropathic, neurovascular, musculoskeletal, as well as intracranial and extracranial systems will be reviewed. Peripheral and central mechanisms associated with these disorders are used to provide an update of these frequently seen clinical issues.
