Pulsed radio frequency fixes this condition. Drs and neurosurgeons know this and won’t admit to its effectiveness in reducing and curing pain. Pulsed radiofrequency rather than continuous as pulsed prevents nerve destruction at temp of 42 degrees.

For the parent of the child, my heart goes out to you both. Yes, children can get it though it isn’t as common as in someone over 40 say. She needs to be properly diagnosed by a neurologist, other things can cause facial pain and you want her on the right treatment. It took an MRA ,like an MRI but focuses on blood vessels, for me to get a definitive answer. Bless you both.

[@noillusions8734]

Hi, I first experienced it in 2003, I was 30, I had been in a really bad accident a year before, serious back and abdominal injuries (still suffer from those today) then 10 months later was hit head on again! At some point I noticed a pain in my jaw, felt like a toothache, but it would come and go. Over days and weeks it got worse and worse. I explained it to my fam doc cause I couldn't figure it out. Her actual response to me was "Oh shit!" Took me off guard of course, she told me to look up Trigeminal Neuralgia. Only had it a handful of times back then, until a couple years ago it happened again. Last week it hit me hard. BUT, I've been getting ketamine/spravato treatments for depression, when I left the office, the TN was almost gone, and other then a few twinges, it hasn't started back up. Ask your doc about it, because my body chemistry is resistant to MOST medications and treatments, if it worked for me, maybe it'll help others!!

I have had very rare shooting pain in my gums on my left side. It’s always left me thinking maybe I have a cavity. Cut to months later and recently, I have felt a weird sensation in my left cheek… kinda feels like ants as I am out for my jogs. I thought I was over caffeinating because I have been guilty of that in the past, but now it’s accompanied by jaw joint pain (both sides). I too am pretty resistant to most meds so I’m wondering how you got into ketamine treatments. Thank you for any info you can provide.

I got myself down to 1 A day .. I’ve had this since 2019 and medication cured it.. but now it’s back.. not as severe but I’m Constantly getting “shocks” Makes u just want to quit..

[@Synergywellnessny]

We don't know what causes TN, there can be various reasons. Dental work,stress, sinus infection, etc... that triggers it. Not muddled at all. I also do a neurological evaluation beforehand. We can't possibly film every visit especially the first initial exam. Chiropractors in many states do emg and NCv testing (I do them, that's a neurological test) what would a neurologist do for a patient with TN?? The same cookie cutter approach they've been doing for decades. Drugs and more drugs. Maybe some botox or gabapentin. And whatever sticks to the wall they'll go with. Not our office! We used latest since based technologies to get proven results

Hi Canoegirl!! You can ask anything😊 They had found that normally it’s an artery pressing on the Trigeminal nerve, and they normally put a piece of teflon in between, but mine was different Here it was a almost a “ball-like” amount of veins pressing against the nerve, so they cauterized the veins and I’ve been okay now for almost 15 years So I believe they saw this in the CT scan they gave me and thought the microvascular decompression was the way to go If you ever need anything, please don’t hesitate to reach out I completely get it, and I’m a nurse and never heard of this disease Do you currently have it??

[@melindaragland7159]

What cold laser therapy brand/device would you recommend? Also is the cold laser therapy a permanent fix; or do I have to go for surgery to have the pain completely stop? My doctor prescribed me Carbamazepine, but the pain is coming more frequent now and is like an electrical shock sensation alongside my right lower jaw bone and at times rings in my ear. The pain comes sporadic and hurts more when I chew. I have had TMJ before but it was many years ago, and I relieved it by doing home remedy workouts with my jaw. I used to get severe headaches and grind my teeth a lot from just nervousness/fear/anxiety, but notice I still grind my teeth, so I try to relax as much as possible and take it easy. At first, I too made the mistake by going to my dentist thinking I had a bad cavity, but my dentist told me he didn't see anything wrong. So I then went to my primary care, and he discovered it was Trigeminal Neuralgia, and that is what he prescribed to me. If you have any recommendations on a device I can purchase, please do let me know and thank you. Your video was very helpful.

Question: Why do you feel pain when there’s a compression of the trigeminal nerve?

[@randomvids1911]

I see someone liked the question and I’ve found the answer so here it is if you’d like to know: the trigeminal neuralgia involves damage to the sensory root of the nerve only and so pain is felt because the spinal root is intact. In fact the pain is surgically annulled by tractotomy of the spinal tract of the trigeminal nerve

[@kenaultman7499]

Sounds like you have trigeminal neuralgia. Your best bet is to have an MRI done on the trigeminal nerve root and see if there's vascular compression. If there is, you can have microvascular decompression surgery. Which is about 95% effective. There are other less invasive procedures like gamma knife, glycogen injections, cyber knife, etc. Go get an MRI and say you're concerned it is trigeminal neuralgia.

I'm a civilian - but in my experience, yes. My pain went to one ear and I even tried an ER visit in 2022 - what a waste of $2,100. My pain would also be in the rear back corner of my tongue area - making swallowing (sometimes) very very difficult.

Question I finished my breast radiation after 3 weeks I start this pain I went with my dentists he told me is trigéminas neuralgia do you think breast radiation

[@Synergywellnessny]

Great question , I believe some side effects of radiation can include paresthesia and numbness. I'm not sure of a correlation between trigeminal neuralgia and radiation. Hope your on the mend and cancer free 💙🙏

Is the laser device DME?

[@joycesvoice2]

My pain started right after the clearing-up of face & inner mouth Shingles. The Shingles missed the inner eye (thank goodness)...but the needle & lightening-like pain was on & off throughout the day on the very outer eye bone & temple...with needle-like pain shooting maybe 10-15 times, lasting 5 minutes or so. I have to use pain cream for now, that's working. Called "Ascend": Silver Sulfadiazine Cream, USP 1%. (RX Only)**this is an Amazing cream for easing the pain for 3-4 hours.

[@Sewing.School]

I just added to what you wrote.

[@allann7333]

Thanks for sharing this information. All this time I thought I had TMJ. I tried steroid injections and Botox, but nothing seemed to work. I was experiencing the pain around my ear and in front of my ear, accompanied by an electric shock sometimes.

[@Mariadi-X]

You can try carbamazepine 100mg slow released.

[@allann7333]

@@Mariadi-XThanks. Was there a noticeable improvement?

[@Sewing.School]

Carbamezapine @@allann7333 is a generic for Tegretol. In my experience, all generics are not created equal, either. I got lucky with the first brand helping me (made by a company called Torrent) , but when the pharmacy changed to a different brand, my ears started to ring - both of them. Just sayin'. I also added a comment to this thread today. I hope it helps others.

[@BarbaraEads]

Worst pain ever had. No meds helped, had surgery 15 years ago in hospital 3 days, off work a month. Do not wish this pain on anyone. It 1st started after radiation treatments after breast cancer, went to remission for years , came back and 2 meds combined not helped.

Just curious. Would the TQ Solo be effective for home treatment and would the best setting to use be 1000 to 3000Hz? Also how many minutes for each spot?

[@Synergywellnessny]

It would be but the newer pain away is more versatile

[@gizlawittens9238]

A retrospective review of patients who received steroid treatment showed that steroids reduced pain levels and a need for surgical intervention. Future research that prospectively offers steroids will better define their role as an adjunctive medicine in acute trigeminal nerve pain management.26 okt 2022

[@Sewing.School]

I'd think that through - ***why*** would a steroid help? Please see my longer comment I made today and see if it gives you a different angle to think about. Good wishes to you!

Hi. How can you distinguish between TN and tmj. I have some symptoms that seem to overlap with each other

Well it dosen't seem clear does it? I have been previously diagnosed with TMJ but due to having further teeth out I haven't been wearing my tooth guard - now the symptoms have progressed and it's more like TN.

I stopped trigeminal neuralgia within a couple of weeks completely by photon light (660, 810, 850nm), mega dose b12 methylcobalamin, and cutting gluten dairy and processed sugar. Getting to the root cause of inglammation, gut health and nutrient deficiencies (in this case damaged the myelin sheath) is the only way to stop it long term and repair the underlying issues. You can overcome this terrible condition x

I had no prior issues and started getting pain in February after I had Covid in January. My blood tests show my b12 is okay but maybe i need more. Are you okay still?
