Overview:
Trigeminal Neuralgia causes sudden, intense facial pain, lasting from seconds to minutes. It can affect one or both sides of the face.
Symptoms:
-
Most common in individuals over 50.
-
Sharp, sudden, severe pain, sometimes with a burning sensation.
-
Triggers: eating, shaving, brushing teeth, or even sleeping.
-
Pain worsens over time, though it’s not life-threatening.
Causes:
-
Compression of the trigeminal nerve, often by an enlarged blood vessel.
-
May also be linked to multiple sclerosis, which damages the trigeminal nerve.
Treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN)
-
Medications: Anticonvulsants or muscle relaxants to control pain.
-
Surgical Options:
-
Microvascular Decompression (MVD): Relieves nerve compression by repositioning or removing blood vessels.
-
Stereotactic radiosurgery: Targets the nerve with focused radiation to reduce pain.
-
Radiofrequency thermal lesioning: Selectively destroys nerve fibers associated with pain
-
Percutaneous Procedures: Such as glycerol injections or balloon compression to interrupt pain signals.
-
Botox for Trigeminal Neuralgia
A safe, minimally invasive option to reduce severe facial pain by blocking nerve signals. Results last 3–6 months, ideal for those unresponsive to medications. Consult The QDC for personalized care.
