What Out Patients Are Saying
I went to Sri Ramakrishna Hospital to treat my facial neuralgia that had crippled my life for the last two years. Despite trying many physiotherapists and medicines, the pain would not go away. But, thanks to the specialists here, I feel much better in just a few weeks after starting my new drug course. I can finally smile freely!

Following a sports injury a few years back, I started getting these painful seizures on the right side of my face. Massage, physio, pain medicines, nothing worked for the longest time. Last month, I had to quit my job because of pain; that's when I decided to visit Sri Ramakrishna Hospital for a consultation. One month into the treatment, I already feel like a new person with no episodes of TN!

Frequently Asked Questions
Common indications of facial neuralgia include – bursts of excruciating facial pain, a feeling of electric shocks that can last for a few minutes, throbbing pain on one side of the face that spreads out from a focal point. Some people also experience a severe burning sensation and pain before the attack sets in.
In most cases, Trigeminal neuralgia is characterised by short bursts of pain that spread over days and months. If untreated, the pain and discomfort can increase with time. So, it is best to consult with a specialist early to treat the condition without any complications.
- The first step in prognosis is medication. The most commonly prescribed drugs are antispasmodics and anticonvulsants that prevent symptomatic pain and spasms.
- Surgery using a Gamma knife or non surgical techniques like radiofrequency thermal ablation is used if medications stop working. Other alternative pain therapies are also helpful in pain management.
The treatment duration and effectiveness depend on the severity of pain, history of neurological issues, resistance to oral medications, underlying conditions. Usually, patients start responding to medication in a week like intervention gives immediate relief .
