Trigeminal Neuralgia

Trigeminal Neuralgia: Precision Treatment for Unbearable Facial Pain

Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) is a chronic pain condition characterized by intense, stabbing pain along the branches of the trigeminal nerve, which provides sensation to the face. The pain is often triggered by routine activities such as chewing, talking, brushing teeth, or even a light touch. This condition, sometimes referred to as the “suicide disease” due to its severity, can severely impact a person’s quality of life, leading to significant emotional and psychological distress. At Vinayaka Neuro Multispeciality Centre, we specialize in the diagnosis and management of trigeminal neuralgia, providing relief from the debilitating pain through advanced, targeted treatments.

Comprehensive Diagnosis and Tailored Treatment Approaches

Diagnosing trigeminal neuralgia requires a thorough neurological evaluation and imaging studies such as MRI to rule out any underlying causes like tumors or multiple sclerosis. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, Dr. Kancha Naresh develops an individualized treatment plan to relieve pain and manage symptoms effectively. The treatment may include anticonvulsant medications to reduce nerve firing, pain management strategies, and for more severe cases, surgical options such as microvascular decompression or gamma knife radiosurgery. Our goal is to offer a range of options tailored to each patient’s needs, ensuring minimal side effects and maximum pain relief.
