Can anyone tell me about this please? I have stabbing headaches in the central/upper left hand region of my head. My Dr. Said this might be the problem! Cheers x

It's a nerve disorder of the trigeminal nerve, which is the one that controls a lot of the sensation in the face. It's a chronic pain condition, but can usually be managed by medications.
