summary

Maybe many people are not familiar with the term trigeminal neuralgia, or even have never heard of it. But in fact, trigeminal neuralgia is a common disease, especially in the elderly women, the incidence of trigeminal neuralgia is very high. However, many people often confuse this disease with toothache and miss the best time to treat trigeminal neuralgia. So drug treatment is difficult to achieve significant effect, so how to treat trigeminal neuralgia is the most effective way. Now let me introduce some of them to you.

How to treat trigeminal neuralgia

First, the nerve tissue of patients with trigeminal neuralgia has been damaged, so if it is only closed treatment, it is only a method to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. It can not fundamentally solve the problem of trigeminal neuralgia. When the pain is unbearable, we can take a certain dose of painkillers to relieve the pain, but the most important thing is to find out the cause of neuron damage.

Second: at present, the frequency radiation thermocoagulation technology is the most effective and safe method for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, because patients almost do not feel pain in the process of treatment, and because the frequency radiation therapy is a minimally invasive therapy, patients recover relatively quickly, and the recurrence probability is relatively low.

Third: Patients with trigeminal neuralgia under the age of 70, and the physical rehabilitation ability is relatively strong, you can also choose surgical treatment, microvascular decompression, eliminate the compression of peripheral blood vessels on the trigeminal nerve, can also achieve the effect of reducing pain, so that patients recover. It's more thorough than medication.

matters needing attention

1. The treatment of patients with trigeminal neuralgia generally starts with drug treatment, and the curative effect of carbamazepine tablets is ideal. However, patients should pay attention to follow the doctor's advice when using drugs, and should not use painkillers indiscriminately. 2. Trigeminal neuralgia may appear similar to "facial paralysis" symptoms, we must pay attention to prevention.
