The causes of trigeminal neuralgia are not fully understood. However, it is believed to be caused by the compression of the trigeminal nerve. This nerve is responsible for sending signals from the face to the brain. The compression of this nerve can be caused by a variety of factors, including tumors, damage to the blood vessels, and inflammation.
In some cases, the cause of trigeminal neuralgia is unknown. However, regardless of the cause, the result is typically the same: severe pain that can make even simple tasks, like brushing your teeth, extremely painful. If you suffer from trigeminal neuralgia, there are a variety of treatment options available. However, finding the right treatment can be a challenge, as each person responds differently to various treatments.
If you are suffering from this condition, it is important to work with your doctor to find a treatment that works for you.
