Default Nerve pain - good news for me I hope.

I thought my head injury had caused trigeminal neuralgia because I was getting pain in the right side of my face in my nostril, jaw, cheek, eye, ear, gums and teeth. Well after a molar extraction today and a tooth filling, I am not experiencing these. Its funny how you can put everything down to PCS. My only worry is that this facial pain started when I went back to work, but hopefully this is just a coincidence and it is dental and not PCS related. I do get sore eyes and ears due to noise and light occasionally, but the right ear and eye pain was excessive and could be down to an additional dental factor. I really hope so because I will be well on my way to recovery if all this pain goes away for good.
