Trigeminal neuralgia is one of the common diseases in neurology, which includes both primary and secondary neuralgia. The general treatment methods include medication and surgery. Primary trigeminal neuralgia refers to pain with no clear occupying lesion causing compression of the trigeminal nerve, the cause of which is currently unknown. This primary pain is usually treated with medications, usually oral carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, or gabapentin, for pain control during the initial treatment. However, it is important to note that side effects such as drowsiness and vertigo may occur when taking the medication and should not be taken for a long period of time. If treatment is not effective, surgical treatment, such as minimally invasive vascular decompression surgery, should be taken in due course to treat the condition. Secondary trigeminal neuralgia refers to trigeminal neuralgia caused by compression of the trigeminal nerve by tumors, etc. In this case, trigeminal neuralgia is usually treated by removing the trigeminal nerve. In this case, the tumor around the trigeminal nerve is usually removed for treatment. In this way, the pain of the trigeminal nerve can be reduced. In addition, depending on the severity of the condition, some methods such as stereotactic radiation therapy or balloon compression can also be chosen. Therefore, the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia is based on medication and surgery, but patients must go to a regular tertiary care hospital to use medication under the guidance of doctors, and must not use medication on their own.
