A Sonicare toothbrush at least 1-1.5 minutes every day has saved my sanity. When using this toothbrush I can go a year without pain. Any episodes last a week or 2. It takes about two weeks of consistant use to get relief, so you have to power through the pain for that time. Diagnosed in my late 30s, stopped trying meds when I had a bad skin reaction to oxcarbazepine. Also they Autoimmune Protocol for nutrition and lifestyle to reduce overall inflammation in your body. Additional Note about toothbrush: for me, if I have a flare up, I use the toothbrush to massage my face (both sides, not just the side with TN pain), making sure to get the whole area from eye brow to jawline and nose to ear. No more than 1-2 min in am and pm. This has been working for me for almost 8 years.

Benzocane based gel, (oral tooth gel) e.g. 20% oragel is very helpful, it doesn't last too long when you have realy long periods of pain, but putting it right at the back of the hinge of the jaw on the side that has an issue can cause short term relief for severe pain

Thank you thank you thank you!!!! My face has been in throbbing pain the last 2 days worse than ever. I’ve had moments where I was in constant pain for 2 weeks but never this bad. I started tapping on my cheek after reading this and it took a lot a bunch of pain. It’s still there but it has taken the edge off. Tomorrow I’m buying a electric tooth brush so I can really massage the area properly. I’ve yet to see a doctor but at least now I know I can survive until I get a date and time to see one. Thank you so much for sharing this information.

My experience of TN involved pain when I ate, talked and blew my nose. I was diagnosed with TN about three years ago by my gp. Specialists at the hospital thought it might be Temperomandibular Joint Disfunction (TMD or TMJ) though. One of them recently tested this and anaesthetised the nerve by injecting into my gums on the side of the face where the problem was. As soon as he did this, the tingling/little electric shock sensations I was experiencing when talking to him went away. I've now been prescribed Tegretol (carbamazapine). I'm not too happy about taking the tablets, but will do so for now until I make further enquiries about any surgical procedures that may be available. I live in the UK.

Mine happens suddenly when I'm sleeping. I get a cramp in my neck then before I even have time to react it feels as if the right side of my face has been smashed in with a baseball bat. I've been told many times that the nerves in my neck aren't connected to the nerves in my face so I don't understand why my neck triggers my TN. When I massage my neck, if I hit that nerve on the right side just under the base of my skull it cases a TN flare up.

My dentist took x-rays found nothing. I have a numb left face, twitches, eye pain coming from my neck stenosis. Physical therapy was suggested. Pinched inflamed nerve from my neck. Improving after 4 months.

I live in a small village in the northern part of Sweden. And got this knife stabbing pain and was absolutely sure it was a tooth. Two weeks prior to this, I had my tooths checked by a dentist, so I called her and got an appointment. She examined me again and took some new x-ray images but ruled out problems with my tooth. She was almost sure it was neurological and told me to get an appointment at our health care centre in our village. The doctor was almost sur it was Trigeminal neuralgia so I got Pregabalin (what it's called in Sweden) and it helped. But after a while, I had to increase the dose, and then when I had my blood tested, they said that I couldn't increase the dose anymore. So I was sent to a neuro specialist who gave me 3 options. 1 continue with medication (which I didn't want. By this time, occasionally, my fingers would twitch because of the medication) 2 they could push a needle to the trigeminus nerve and with a balloon squeeze the nerv so it more or less died. This could fix the pain for a couple of weeks to up to 10 years. 3 They could make a microvascular decompression. Where they drilled a 1 Inc hole in my neck and then put some Teflon padding between the nerve and a blood vessel. I went for the third option. And after that, I've been out of pain for 4 years. That surgery did cost me something like 70 usd (or in Swedish 700 kronor), but that was not for my medical treatment it was for the cost of having a bed and the food while I was at the hospital. Yes, we have high taxes here but I won't complain about that.

For me, and I’m not suggesting anything to anyone, I have found that chiropractic works best for my condition.

When would surgery be indicated if patient has been suffering for many years off and on. And my episodes last several days in length. Upping my Lyrica and Cymbalta seem to help but mostly I'm stuck laying on a heating pad in bed a minute or two off and pain comes immediately back.

I have trigeminal neuralgia due to a botched surgery at age 18 to remove an eye. The surgeon hit the trigeminal nerve and it is excruciating. Only one medication has ever helped and if I don’t get it I cannot think or function. It’s from the left orbit working out towards the nasal area, and then the head itself.

I have tn. The pain is on another level. It's worse then having a combination of the worse tooth ache ever with sinus burning and pressure in and around my ear and face. This episode has lasted 6 weeks this time and I'm taking prednisolone for it. It stops the pain being unbearable but still pretty shocking to be honest. I'm managing to work but only just. My mum and dad didn't have it but my mum did suffer terrible migraines when I was a child. I belive mine came from a previous injury as a teenager although it never raised its head till I was 43.

Is like you are passing the same situation iam into. I have tried many doctors but still no solution. It was a friend pharmacist that recommended me Alprazolam(xanar) 1 mg a day. The medication help me to calm the pain and you feel normal like a human. I take 1mg everyday and it control the pain the whole day. Now Ian reducing to 0.5 mg. A doctor told me is not a long term use medication bit i really don't care provided it is given Mr pain relieve that I want. I take green tea to detox my body. When people don't know the gravity of pain people who have this condition pass through, they will tell you all sort of things. Don't use this , use this, avoid this. I am now interested on what give me pain free any day I took it than what doctors said. If doctors can't find the solution, then i should go for what helps. I have used lyrica, pregabalin 150mg and it makes my situation worst. But this Alprazolam is given me relieved everyday. How I calmed my nerve i don't know but it does

There is some evidence that Vitamin B-12 can reduce the pain of Trigeminal Neuralgia in some people. (Search on Google Scholar.) Generally, the preferred form of Vitamin B-12 is Methylcobalamin in sublingual Lozenge form. (Not cyanocobalamin). I use KAL brand, a combination of Methylcobalamin and Adenosylcobalamin, at a dosage of 2,000 micrograms per Lozenge. The Lozenge is very small. (Other brands are fine too.) Vitamin B-12 helps to repair the myelin sheath of nerves. It will take weeks, at least, to see improvement (if it does help). Meanwhile, consider calling a nurseline (if your insurance provides one) or, if things are unbearable, visiting the ER. If there's any chance your pain could be from an infected tooth, don't ignore that. I'm Not a medical professional and this isn't medical advice.
