Thanks, but like I said, I already did some digging on this online. It’s not like I’m having these massive, agonizing flare-ups or anything. It’s just this constant, nagging ache right under my eye.

I mean, does anyone actually believe you can have pain in just one finger without the whole arm feeling it? A finger is literally just an extension of the arm, right?🙂

Seriously? Is anyone actually there?

😕

So, I hit up the ENT this morning, and they diagnosed me with infraorbital neuralgia. I’ve got a follow-up scheduled for next Monday with a maxillofacial specialist to get a second opinion and confirm everything. I did a bit of deep diving on Google, though, and now I'm wondering if anyone else here has dealt with something similar? Also, is there actually a meaningful difference between this and trigeminal neuralgia, even if the infraorbital nerve is technically just a branch of the trigeminal nerve?

Thanks a ton
