Trigeminal Neuralgia Treatment
Trigeminal neuralgia is a nerve pain condition causing sudden, severe, electric‑shock‑like pain on one side of the face, often triggered by talking, chewing, or even light touch. It usually occurs due to pressure on the trigeminal nerve by a nearby blood vessel or, less commonly, tumors or other diseases.
What happens in treatment
Initial treatment is with special anti‑nerve‑pain medicines that calm the overactive nerve.
If medicines fail or cause side effects, procedures such as microvascular decompression (moving the blood vessel away from the nerve), radiofrequency ablation, or stereotactic radiosurgery can give long‑term relief.
Choice of procedure depends on age, general health, imaging findings, and patient preference.
What to expect after treatment
Many patients experience significant reduction in pain and improvement in quality of life.
Some procedures may cause temporary facial numbness or mild discomfort, which is usually manageable and explained beforehand.
