I have pain in my lower jaw and around my eye, worse on my worst side. I also get a stabbing pain in my cheek sometimes if I use my arms too much (when I used to drive, for example). This pain often proceeded a migraine.

I had facial pain before surgery but it got significantly worse after. I got a tight, sheath-like feeling down the side of my head, neck and into my shoulder following surgery. My surgeon said this was attributable to scar tissue.
