Treatment options for types of facial pain may include medications such as analgesics, anticonvulsants, or antidepressants to alleviate pain and manage associated symptoms.

In cases of nerve-related facial pain, treatments like nerve blocks, botulinum toxin injections, or surgical procedures such as microvascular decompression may be considered to relieve pressure on affected nerves.

Additionally, physical therapy, acupuncture, or psychological therapies may be recommended to complement medical treatments and improve pain management. Treatment decisions are individualised and may involve a multidisciplinary approach, with the goal of reducing pain and improving the patient’s quality of life.

Hemifacial Spasm/Facial Movement Disorders

Medical teams treat hemifacial spasm with medications like anticonvulsants or botulinum toxin injections for temporary relief, while microvascular decompression surgery offers a more permanent solution by relieving pressure on the facial nerve. Other options include surgical techniques, physical therapy, and psychological support, with treatment decisions made collaboratively to minimise spasms and improve quality of life.

The overarching goal is to minimise muscle spasms, enhance functionality, and alleviate associated discomfort and psychological distress.

Fantastic unit and all staff were lovely and comforting and couldn’t do too much for me and my companion! Doctor was thorough and answered all questions to my satisfaction and kind with the frame fitting. Radiographers were professional and caring.

Exemplary care. From the friendly receptionist who personally escorted my sister and I to the ward to every clinician who cared for me on the day. Each explained their role in my care at depth with empathy and warmth. Thank you so much for allaying my angst on the day.

I was naturally a little apprehensive about undergoing a treatment that was unknown to me, but the very kind and professional team explained and reassured me. If anyone has been offered an appointment at the Queens Square facility, don't be too concerned about it. It will soon be done with. My sincere thanks to the medical team and best wishes to any who find themselves in a situation similar to mine.
