Homeopathy Treatment For Trigeminal Neuralgia – Is It The Only Option?

Homeopathy treatment trigeminal neuralgia Mumbai Trigeminal neuralgia is commonly experienced through shooting pain in the face. In August 2011, a popular Indian film actor, Salman Khan had undergone a surgery as he was suffering from “Trigeminal Neuralgia”, a nerve disorder that caused him intense pain in the face. It appears that he is not the only one suffering from it and as the pains symptoms got to be published in newspapers, it started getting reported to doctors, more often.

Now trigeminal neuralgia affects the trigeminal nerve, one of the largest nerves in the head. The trigeminal nerve sends impulses of touch, pain, pressure, and temperature to the brain from the face, jaw, gums, forehead, and around the eyes.

If you have trigeminal neuralgia, even mild stimulation of your face – such as from brushing your teeth or putting on makeup – may trigger a jolt of excruciating pain. You may initially experience short, mild attacks, but trigeminal neuralgia can progress, causing longer, more frequent bouts of searing pain.

What are the causes of 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. However, experts are not completely sure of the cause.

What are the symptoms of trigeminal neuralgia?

Typically, a patient will have one or more of these symptoms:

  • Intermittent twinges of mild pain.
  • Severe episodes of searing, shooting, jabbing pain that feel like electric shocks.
  • Sudden attacks of pain which are triggered by touching the face, chewing, speaking or brushing teeth.
  • Spasms of pain which last from a couple of seconds to a couple of minutes.
  • Episodes of cluster attacks which may go on for days, weeks, months, and in some cases longer. There may be periods without any pain.
  • Pain wherever the trigeminal nerve and its branches may reach, including the forehead, eyes, lips, gums, teeth, jaw and cheek.
  • Pain which affects one side of the face.
  • Pain on both sides of the face (much less common).
  • Pain that is focused in one spot or spreads in a wider pattern.
  • Attacks of pain which occur more regularly and intensely over time.
  • Tingling or numbness in the face before pain develops.

Some patients may experience bouts of pain regularly for days, weeks or months at a time. Attacks of pain may occur hundreds of times each day in severe cases. Some patients may have periods without any symptoms which last for months or even years.

What is the common treatment for trigeminal neuralgia?
