Kenneth Hentschel et al. Neurologist. 2005 Jul.

Facial pain is a common symptom that may be a feature of a primary headache disorder or a secondary feature of organic disease. A thorough clinical history and physical examination may reveal the characteristic clinical features and assist in diagnosis. However, in some cases, the etiology may remain indeterminate.
