I AM A 77 YEARS OLD SENIOR CITIZEN SUFFERING FROM trigeminal NERVOSA FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS WHAT IS THE REMEDY. PLEASE SUGGEST.

Question

This facial pain typically does not follow anatomical boundaries or its explainable by present day neurophysiological understanding. The pain is often constant with no remission and is aggravated by stress. Treatment is difficult and often directed to the psychiatric cause.

Treatment:
Currently, MVD is the closest possible cure for trigeminal neuralgia. However, it's an invasive procedure and carries a risk of potentially serious complications, such as facial numbness, hearing loss, stroke and even death in around 1 in every 200 cases.

Trigeminal neuralgia can be dealt effectively by Physiotherapy and Medical Nutrition Therapy. If it's severe enough, go to a good Maxillofacial surgeon for modern advanced remedy. Good luck!
