How can you determine if there is a problem with the tooth versus the affects of Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia?

[@MichaelBrisman-yd2sf]

Hello. It is best to follow up with your dentist. Patients with Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia often experience a feeling of electric shock in the throat.

My facial pain is 24/7 triggered by drops in barometric pressure, wind or AC blowing on me. Is this unusual?

[@MichaelBrisman-yd2sf]

Hello - Yes this is a little unusual. Best to follow up with your specialist.
