What could be causing this?

Suddenly I feel an electric shock on my face, and sometimes there is pain. I have been suffering from this problem for years and it seriously affects my quality of life. What could be causing this?

May be trigeminal neuralgia or facial nerve affection.

It sounds like it is something neurological.

I know if two causes involving the same area. One is MS affecting the trigeminal nerve in the face. The second is a growth around or pinching of the same nerve. I would get it checked. If the nerve is damaged, you can get facial paralysis.

Is it near your ear or jaw bone.
Could be trigeminal nerve

Is it random or specific to a section.. because face is a large area. Nerves do generate electricity like for me it happens on my neck.

@in10RjFox It usually happens on my cheeks
