What should I pay attention to during the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia?

  The four treatment myths of trigeminal neuralgia 1, the disease is anxious to seek medical help, misbelieve in the so-called “bias, secret formula”. Many patients with trigeminal neuralgia suffer from trigeminal nerve pain for many years, and after many treatments are ineffective, as the saying goes, the disease is urgent and disorderly treatment, the result is often mistakenly believe in some so-called treatment of trigeminal neuralgia “bias, ancestral secret recipes”, the result is not less money spent, not only did not reduce the pain, but also led to a variety of complications, resulting in The result is that money is not spent and the pain is not reduced, but leads to various complications, resulting in lifelong regret.  2, mistakenly believe that trigeminal neuralgia is an incurable disease. In reality, most patients know that they have trigeminal neuralgia, but they do not know that trigeminal neuralgia can be cured or eradicated for a variety of reasons, including lack of effective medical information, lack of proper guidance from doctors, and loss of confidence in the cure because long-term treatment is ineffective, especially the latter is more common in clinical work…. …In fact, trigeminal neuralgia is a disease that can be completely cured, the key is to get the guidance of professional doctors and choose the right treatment method.  3. Misunderstanding of the disease, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment. Trigeminal neuralgia is characterized by recurrent episodes of severe pain in the facial areas such as lips, corners of the mouth, nose, palate or oral mucosa, with no aura, coming and going in a hurry, resembling lightning, with intense pain, such as cutting, burning, needling or electric shock-like, often some particularly sensitive areas, as long as the slightest contact can trigger severe pain in the face, due to fear of pain attacks, patients often dare not speak, eat This can seriously affect the patient’s quality of life, and some patients even tell us that it feels worse than death when the pain attacks. Trigeminal neuralgia is easy to recognize according to the above typical characteristics. However, for early mild trigeminal neuralgia or atypical trigeminal neuralgia, it is often mistaken for toothache, migraine, sinusitis or other stomatological and quintuplegia diseases, and even wrongly treated with tooth extraction.  4. Excessive worry about the risk of surgery and afraid to undergo surgical treatment. Although many patients are in severe pain and urgently require a cure for the disease, but the mention of surgery is always worried and afraid, always think that surgery to open the skull, “to open up in the brain”, and ultimately often do not dare to accept surgical treatment, especially the relatively mild symptoms of patients are more so. In fact, gamma knife treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, less painful, less traumatic, two to three days change can be discharged. Trigeminal neuralgia should not be treated indiscriminately. There are still many imperfections in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, and the joint efforts of patients and doctors are needed to improve the efficiency of the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia.
