What is Trigeminal Neuralgia?
Trigeminal neuralgia is a condition that affects the trigeminal nerve, which is responsible for sensations in the face. It causes intense, sudden, and sharp facial pain that can last from seconds to minutes.
There are two main types of trigeminal neuralgia:

- Secondary or Type 2: A constant dull ache, burning or stabbing pain that can be felt in the affected area of the face.

My son Bhuvan Singh aged 4yrs, was suffering from swelling in spine cord, which was a serious long term issue for him. We searched for a good Neurosurgeon, then my cousin suggested me to Dr. Ganesh V, we visited Dr. Ganesh V and explained the
concern.
Dr. Ganesh V explained each and everything very clearly that he was diagnosed with Duastem metamylia, a very rare type of problem and made us so confident to undergo the surgery. My son underwent Split cord reair which was almost 8hrs surgery After the surgery, my son is completely normal as usual.

A few months ago I had a gym accident which I recognised a month later after incident took place that there is something wrong .I had my shiver all the time and was not having good balance to walk like normal .when diagnosed by sir I got to know my D6- 7-8 were in great danger and there was also a probability that I could loose my lower body sensation. But thanks to sir he has been a very good support to me and my family. He performed a surgery and it was great success. Now I have recovered completely and feel normal agin thanks to Ganesh sir for all of this .and supposedly his junior manjunath sir thank u both.

Frequently Asked Questions
Treatment options for TN may include medications such as anticonvulsants or tricyclic antidepressants, nerve blocks or injections, or in severe cases, surgery. The appropriate treatment plan will depend on the severity of symptoms and the underlying cause of the condition.
TN is typically diagnosed based on a patient’s symptoms and a physical exam. Additional tests such as an MRI or CT scan may be done to rule out other possible causes of facial pain.
