Pain-focused follow-up

Trigeminal neuralgia can make eating, brushing, speaking or touching the face painful. The page explains why correct diagnosis matters and when surgery can provide relief.

Typical Symptoms

Brief shock-like pain on one side of the face triggered by touch, chewing, brushing or cold air.

Treatment Ladder

Medicines are often first-line. Surgery is considered when pain remains severe, side effects are limiting or imaging supports a surgical cause.

Patient Goal

The aim is durable pain relief while preserving facial sensation and quality of life.

Patient Questions

Will surgery be recommended at the first visit?

No. Dr. Narula first studies symptoms, neurological findings, reports and patient goals. Surgery is discussed only when it is medically necessary or offers a clear advantage over conservative care.

What makes minimally invasive neurosurgery different?

The objective is to reach the diseased area through a smaller corridor while protecting healthy tissue. This can mean less pain, smaller scars and faster mobilization in suitable patients.

Can I bring previous MRI, CT or hospital records?

Yes. Prior scans, discharge summaries, prescriptions and investigation reports help create a safer, more complete treatment plan.
