Trigeminal Neuralgia

Book an appointment
  • Trigeminal neuralgia is a condition that causes painful sensations similar to an electric shock on one side of the face.
  • This chronic pain condition affects the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from your face to your brain.
  • 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 and cause longer, more-frequent bouts of searing pain.

Symptoms:

  • Episodes of severe, shooting or jabbing pain that may feel like an electric shock.
  • Spontaneous attacks of pain or attacks triggered by things such as touching the face, chewing, speaking or brushing teeth.
  • Attacks of pain lasting from a few seconds to several minutes.
  • Pain that occurs with facial spasms.
  • Bouts of multiple attacks lasting days, weeks, months or longer — some people have periods when they experience no pain.
  • Pain in areas supplied by the trigeminal nerve, including the cheek, jaw, teeth, gums, lips, or less often the eye and forehead.
  • Pain affecting one side of the face at a time.
  • Pain focused in one spot or spread in a wider pattern.
  • Pain rarely occurring at night while sleeping.
  • Attacks that become more frequent and intense over time.

A variety of triggers may set off the pain of trigeminal neuralgia, including:

  • Shaving.
  • Touching your face.
  • Eating.
  • Drinking.
  • Brushing your teeth.
  • Talking.
  • Putting on makeup.
  • Breeze lightly blowing over your face.
  • Smiling.
  • Washing your face.

When to see a doctor

If you experience facial pain, particularly prolonged or recurring pain, or pain unrelieved by over-the-counter pain relievers, see your doctor.

"Dr Vamsi recently operated on me to remove a meningioma (benign brain tumour). He was the doctor I went to for a second opinion and we travelled from Hyderabad to see him. I instantly felt comfortable with him. He spent time answering all our questions, was very knowledgeable and allayed all our fears. After leaving his office the first time I felt more empowered to make the decision for tumour removal. The Tumor was removed in full and the operation went smoothly. I would recommend him to anyone with a similar condition"
- Sridhar Sri
"My problem was Trigeminal Neuralgia which was treated by Dr Yasaswi. Six months on and I still can't believe it: I can smile (even laugh), talk and eat - things I couldn't do without pain for 8 long years. I've seen a number of doctors over those years and none had diagnosed the exact problem or suggested a solution, except drugs, which didn't help. Dr Yasaswi showed me the problem in the MRI scan within minutes of seeing them.I highly recommend him and his staff. They've been terrific, friendly, approachable, caring and efficient all the way along."
