30 Jan Stem Cell Therapy for Trigeminal Neuralgia
One medical condition that affects older people, particularly women, is trigeminal neuralgia. This condition is a result of a long-term condition and the periods of remission often get shorter over time.
What exactly is Trigeminal Neuralgia, and what are the best treatment options available? Read on to get answers to these.
HOW TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA HAPPENS
Trigeminal neuralgia is a condition that causes painful sensations on one side of the face. The pain is a result of a sensation that goes from your face to your brain.
In those moments when you’re trying to touch your face or even move a part of your face, and you get a quick pain, there’s a chance that it may result from trigeminal neuralgia.
When a blood vessel presses on the trigeminal nerve, it creates a potentially harmful situation for the nerve. As the heart continues to beat, the blood vessel will rub the nerve and eventually erode the membrane and irritate the nerve.
The result of this is that there’s a feeling of sharp pain in an area of the face, and this occurs when the face is involved in different activities. Pain can occur in clusters for days, weeks, or months and even go as far as ceasing for several months to several years at a time.
The parts of the body that get affected most times include the temples, forehead, back of the neck, and back of the head.
You may trigger trigeminal neuralgia when you wash or touch your face, shave, eat, brush your teeth, drink, smile, or wear makeup.
TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA
A number of treatments can offer some relief from the pain caused by trigeminal neuralgia.
Medicine
Of course, regular painkillers like paracetamol may not be all that effective in treating trigeminal neuralgia, medical practitioners will typically prescribe other medicines like anticonvulsants. Although anticonvulsants are typically for treating epilepsy, they can also help in the control of your nerve pain because they can slow down the electrical impulses in the nerves.
However, they need to be taken regularly and can be stopped when taking them if the episodes of pain cease and you’re in remission.
Surgery and procedures
For anyone that needs more than medicine to control their trigeminal neuralgia symptoms, specialists may suggest surgical and non-surgical options for such patients. There are a number of possible procedures that can be used to treat trigeminal neuralgia, so what really determines your choice will be the potential benefits and risks.
Stem cell therapy has recently been included in the treatment options for trigeminal neuralgia symptoms.
This treatment method is safe and generally uses stem cells taken from a patient’s fat tissue. It is also a noninvasive way to treat trigeminal neuralgia for patients who want to avoid surgery.
