Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post indicates towards Trigeminal neuralgia.
Symptomatic relief can be obtained by taking analgesics like Paracetamol or Ibuprofen (Advil) to be taken after food & nervigenic agents like Vit B6, B12 & Folic acid.

If you still find any difficulty, kindly get certain investigations like complete blood count, estimation of blood pressure & blood sugar levels and Thyroid profile to rule out any pathological cause for the symptoms.
A CT scan or MRI of brain will also be helpful.

Till then, maintain adequate hydration & nutrition status, avoid stress, exercise regularly & practice meditation.

Wishing you a Good Health.
Take care.
