What is Trigeminal Neuralgia? An Overview

Trigeminal neuralgia is a neurological condition characterized by intense, stabbing pain in the face, typically occurring in short, unpredictable attacks. The condition affects the trigeminal nerve, which is one of the most widely distributed nerves in the head.
Symptoms Include:
  • Sudden episodes of severe facial pain, often described as an electric shock.
  • Pain affecting one side of the face at a time, commonly the cheek, jaw, or teeth.
  • Episodes triggered by everyday activities such as brushing teeth or applying makeup.
Understanding the symptoms and triggers of trigeminal neuralgia is crucial for those affected, as it helps in managing the condition and seeking appropriate treatments like laser therapy.
