This is the nerve that is related to sensations in the face. As a result, this is an incredibly painful condition that can be triggered by the simplest of things such as smiling chewing. The primary symptom of trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is pain in the face. This pain can be excruciating and debilitating, but it doesn’t last long. The pain of TN lasts less than 2 minutes at a time and may only last seconds sometimes. The incapacitating effects are that the pain may recur rapidly. The simplest things can be the trigger that sets it off. TN patients often experience pain from: • Smiling • Chewing • Brushing • Laying the face on a pillow The trigeminal nerve involves three branches that reach throughout the face. Thus, the location of the pain depends on the part of the nerve afflicted. One branch goes above the eye, one extends below the eye and to the upper cheek, and the third extends along the jawline.
