Thanks for your reply. Turns out the swelling got completely out of control and I had an emergency root canal this am. I hope it makes things better.

I'll sometimes swell near the side of my nose on my cheek. This happens to a friend of mine with TN also...weird.

When I have an attack the entire left side of my face swells from the neck right on up. Happens that's where it hurts too. I look pretty funny all lop-sided like that!
Love and Peace.......

I have swelling under my left eye and on the left cheek.I've been to the eye doctor and the ENT and they didn't find anything.
My TN flare up is on the left side and it's killing me.So I guess the swelling must be from that?????????? It looks like someone slugged me. AHHH!!!

Beachtiglet, if you find out a way to prevent it, please let me know too! So far as I know there is nothing to be done. I hurt, I swell, that's just the way it goes.
