Trigeminal Neuralgia - Causes, Symptoms,
Prevention and Treatment

What is Trigeminal Neuralgia ?
Trigeminal Neuralgia, also known as Tic
Douloureaux, is a nerve disorder that causes
abrupt, searing, electric-shock-like facial
pains, most commonly the pain involves the lower
face and jaw, but symptoms may appear near the
nose, ears, eyes or lips. Many experts say
trigeminal neuralgia is the most unbearably
painful human condition. Neuralgia is
severe pain along the course of a nerve. The pain
occurs because of a change in neurological
structure or function due to irritation or damage
of a nerve.

What Causes Trigeminal Neuralgia?

• The human face has two trigeminal nerves, one on
  each side. Each nerve splits into three branches
  which transmit sensations of pain and touch from
  the face, mouth, and teeth to the brain. 
• Most cases of trigeminal neuralgia are believed
  to be caused by blood vessels pressing on the
  root of the trigeminal nerve. This is said to
  make the nerve transmit pain signals which are
  experienced as the stabbing pains of trigeminal
  neuralgia.

Symptoms of Trigeminal Neuralgia

• The pain of TN can come in sharp spasms that feel
  like electric shocks. Pain generally occurs on
  one side of the face and may be brought on by
  sound or touch. Pain can be triggered by routine
  acts, including
• Brushing your teeth
• Shaving
• Putting on makeup
• Touching your face
• Eating or drinking
• Speaking
• A breeze on your face

How Trigeminal Neuralgia Is Diagnosed ?

• Theres no single test that your doctor can order
  to help them diagnose TN. Diagnosis will depend
  on the type and location of the pain and factors
  that trigger the pain. Your doctor will first
  evaluate your medical history and perform a
  physical exam.
• This will include a neurological exam to
  determine which part of the trigeminal nerve is
  being affected. They will touch various parts of
  your face to determine the location of the pain.
• Then they will order tests to rule out other
  conditions with similar symptoms, such as cluster
  headaches or postherpetic neuralgia, which is a
  painful condition that affects nerve fibers and
  skin. They may also order an MRI of your head,
  which can help determine whether multiple
  sclerosis is causing your pain.

How to Prevent the Spread of Trigeminal Neuralgia
?

• Although there is no cure for trigeminal
  neuralgia, however, the following steps may help
  prevent attacks
• Eat soft foods
• Make sure your drinks and foods are not too cold
  or hot when you consume them
• Wash you face with lukewarm water (body
  temperature).
• Use cotton pads when washing your face
• Rinse your mouth with lukewarm water after eating
  if tooth brushing triggers an attack
• Avoid known triggers as much as possible

What is the Treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia?

• You have various options to deal with this
  condition, including medication, Homeopathy and
  surgery.
• 1. Medication
• Medication can provide relief from pain and
  reduce the number of attacks. The first form of
  trigeminal neuralgia treatment is typically
  anti-seizure medications, which are drugs that
  block nerve firing. Some other second line or
  adjunctive medications include muscle relaxants
  and tricyclic antidepressants.
• Moreover, in the past few years there has been
  some ground breaking research in the field of
  homeopathic and Ayurvedic medicine and the
  patients have seen outstanding improvements in
  trigeminal neuralgia pain.
• Biogetica offers a natural treatment for
  Trigeminal Neuralgia.
• OM 13 Formula is a Bio-resonant combination of
  organic remedies, traditionally believed to work
  on the Nervous system by bringing about positive
  changes at the vibrational level.

• 2. Surgery
• While most cases of TN respond to medication,
  sometimes pain will stop responding to medication
  and severe symptoms can return. In those cases,
  surgery may be an option.
• In many cases surgery helps, but symptoms may
  return months or even years later. Surgical
  options for trigeminal neuralgia include
• Microvascular decompression (MVD)
• Percutaneous glycerol rhizotomy (PGR)
• PBCTN (percutaneous balloon compression of the
  trigeminal nerve)
• PSRTR (Percutaneous stereotactic radiofrequency
  thermal rhizotomy)
• PSR (partial sensory rhizotomy)
• GKR (gamma-knife radiosurgery)
