I had nerve sensations on the side of my face that was related to my cervical spine. It wasn't really pain... just similar to numbness... the sensation of insects crawling around. This was confirmed by my discography and got better with my surgery. Most of the doctors I spoke to about it didn't believe it could be my c-spine.
