How does trigeminal nerve mandible ramus treat

First: first of all, this kind of disease is often found in the upper and lower mandible branches of patients, and the most sensitive parts are the corners of the mouth and cheek, tongue and nasal wings. If you touch them gently, you can induce uncomfortable feelings, and the facial muscles of patients will have reflex convulsions, etc.

Second: Generally speaking, there is little possibility of self-healing of this disease, so we must go to the hospital for treatment in time when we find it. In terms of treatment, it is recommended that the best treatment method is drug treatment. For example, we can first consider using carbamazepine to treat the disease wholeheartedly. There is a 70% probability that it will have an effect on the patient's disease.

Third: if the patient's drug treatment has no effect, surgical treatment or closed treatment can be used. For the former, partial trigeminal sensory rhizotomy can be used, and the analgesic effect is better. For blocking treatment, patients can block the trigeminal nerve branch with anhydrous ethanol or glycerin, which can block the pain transmission of patients.
