In addition, trigeminal neuralgia can also cause related complications. For example, when the attack stimulates the central nervous system to be in a state of excitation for a long time, and prolonged sympathetic excitation will increase the secretion of catecholamines in the body, which in turn enhances glycogenolysis, leading to peripheral vasoconstriction, resulting in increased blood pressure and increased heart rate.
