Welcome to the next episode of The Reveal where we take you inside the mind of a test-taker to deconstruct and connect the dots of a board-style question so you can become a better student, transform how you learn, and excel not only on high-stakes exams, but also in your general medical knowledge. Let’s get started. A 61-year-old man presents with intermittent shock-like spasms of pain in his right cheek. The pain only lasts a few seconds at a time but recurs frequently. He notes that shaving each morning causes intense spasms of pain, as does chewing. What is the first-line treatment for his likely diagnosis? A) Baclofen B) Botulinum injections C) Carbamazepine D) Diazepam You can find other episodes of The Rosh Reveal podcast here. Remember to subscribe to the podcast and leave us feedback!
