Doctor: HI,  Thanks  for  asking  the  query,  Pain  in   the  right side of  the  face  can  be  because  of  different  ailments  . It  can  be  because  of  temporomandibular  joint  disorders  which  occurs  due  to  jaw  injuries  ,  bruxism.  Get  complete  clinical  evaluation  of  the  TMJ  done  by  a  dentist. Take  a panoromic x-ray. Eat  soft  diet  .  Neurological  causes  such  as  Trigemminal  neuralgia , Glossopharyngeal  neuralgia  ,  Bell's  Palsy, can lead  to  facial  pain  , visit  an  oral surgeon  to  rule  out  the  causes  .  Pain  can  also  be  because  of  infection  in  the  sinuses  , Sinusitis ,  infection  in  the  ear  otitis  media  .  Visit  to  an  ENT  specialist  and  get  complete  check  done  .  Infection  of  the  tooth  can  also  be  the  reason  .  get  an  x-ray  of   the  tooth  done  . for  pain  relief  you  can  take  tab  combiflam  500mg twice  daily  for 3 days.
