Trigeminal Neuralgia Treatment in Indore

Best Trigeminal Neuralgia Treatment in Indore

Trigeminal neuralgia is a debilitating condition characterized by severe, sudden, and recurrent facial pain. The trigeminal nerve, responsible for transmitting sensations from the face to the brain, becomes irritated or compressed, leading to episodes of intense pain. Trigeminal neuralgia can significantly impact daily life, making activities such as eating, speaking, or brushing teeth unbearable.

Causes & Symptoms

Trigeminal neuralgia can be caused by factors such as compression of the trigeminal nerve by a blood vessel, multiple sclerosis, or nerve damage due to injury or infection. The hallmark symptom is sudden, electric shock-like pain that radiates along the trigeminal nerve pathway, typically on one side of the face. Pain episodes can be triggered by activities such as chewing, talking, or even touching the face.

Our Treatments

At our practice, we specialize in the diagnosis and management of trigeminal neuralgia to provide relief and improve quality of life. Our treatment options may include:
