Trigeminal neuralgia is a type of pain that occurs suddenly and occurs quickly. The pain is often spontaneous or originates from a single point of pain, mostly on one side, there are also some cases of trigeminal neuralgia on both sides but this is rare.

Trigeminal neuralgia is a specific type of pain that often appears suddenly in a short period of time. This is a rare disease, so not many people clearly understand the cause of trigeminal neuralgia.

The technique of destroying the trigeminal ganglion (Gasser) by injecting absolute alcohol is used in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia to bring quick results. This method is often applied to patients with poor health, chronic diseases that cannot be operated on or do not agree to surgery.

In recent years, with the development of medicine and especially the treatment regimen for V-neuralgia resistant to medical treatment that has been used in the past 15 years, including interventional techniques such as: Percutaneous intervention methods (thermocoagulation at the Gasserian ganglion, glycerol injection into the cerebrospinal fluid tank, Gasserian ganglion compression with a balloon), some authors use direct access such as (microsurgical partial resection of main nerve branches, microsurgical decompression of microvascular)

The term primary facial neuralgia describes facial pain that is paroxysmal, episodic, unilateral, and localized to one or more branches of the V nerve. The pathogenesis of this condition remains controversial.
