Curiosidades, juegos, desafíos y quiz Trigeminal Neuralgia
International Trigeminal Neuralgia Day, celebrated on October 7 , aims to raise awareness of this chronic neurological condition characterized by intense facial pain, described as electric shocks, which can be triggered by simple activities such as talking or feeling the wind on the face. The extreme pain can lead to psychiatric disorders, impacting the social and professional lives of patients. There are two main types of neuralgia: classic neuralgia, caused by nerve compression or with no known cause, and painful trigeminal neuropathy, associated with nerve damage. Treatment involves medication, but symptoms can be difficult to control, requiring more research and support for patients.
