Face Pain?

I woke up with a terrible headache.. but it's the first time my face actually hurts. The right side of my face feels like I have a lot of pressure behind it. It kind of feels like I've been hit. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced it?

Me and i still have it.i had several diagnoses for that...and the ns tell me its coming from my cervicals...which is somehow true as pain originates from c2.and then it hits in my left ear and the face from ear to eye.sometimes i feel as if somebody has beaten me up all night on the side.the most horrible pain definetly.

  Hi, yes, this is very common for those of us with Chiari.

I would get it in  just my jaw or down the side of my face it would be different....
