The holidays can be a joyous time filled with parties and family gatherings. Unfortunately, the holidays can also be a time of increased loneliness and isolation. This can be especially true if you are living with facial pain. This holiday season, you can connect with a trained volunteer who knows what you’re going through with the FPA Holiday Help Line.
Now through January 4, FPA volunteers are available on the phone or online chat to talk with anyone living with facial pain, their family members, or their loved ones. Volunteers either live with facial pain themselves or are close to someone who does. They are available to help others with facial pain feel less alone during a difficult time of year.
Phone: Call 800-923-3608 to speak with a volunteer on the phone.
Chat: Use the “Get Help” pop-up on FacePain.org from any device to chat with a volunteer.
*The Holiday Help Line is intended to be a support line and not a crisis line, which is beyond the scope of the FPA. If you or someone you know is in crisis, call 911, or 988 for the National Mental Health Crisis Line.

Facial pain refers to pain experienced in any part of the face, including the eyes and mouth. This type of pain can vary in intensity and character, ranging from sharp or dull to throbbing or achy. It can also be acute or chronic and caused by either nociceptive or neuropathic factors. In some cases, facial pain can be a long-term condition.
Facial pain can be a debilitating experience for many people, and there are numerous types of facial pain with a variety of possible causes. Precise diagnosis is crucial in determining an effective treatment. The journey to diagnosis and pain relief can be a long and winding road.
