Facial pain is defined as high-intensity pain that radiates from the front part of the face to the lower and upper jaw areas. It is scientifically defined as "trigeminal neuralgia".
The severity may last for a few seconds or a few minutes. Because the pain generally resembles an electrical stimulus, its intensity may be so high that it is difficult to describe. A person suffering from facial pain has serious difficulties in important situations such as speaking, chewing and eating. It causes problems so great that it is only possible to consume liquids.
Facial pain may begin without any apparent reason, or it may recur due to reasons such as exposure to wind, cold, heat, or being touched or combed. In addition to the pain recurring again and again, pain intervals have the potential to become more frequent.
Stress is among the negative factors caused by facial pain. In addition, those exposed to the disease may experience mental disorders. For this reason, they may need psychological treatment support.
The diagnosis of facial pain is made with the history taken from the patient. However, what needs to be done is to determine whether there is a formation putting pressure on the trigeminal nerve in the relevant area or not. Unfortunately, in most of these types of checks, a natural cause that causes the disease cannot be found. For this reason, the source of facial pain cannot be determined as a result of such checks.
Facial pain acupuncture treatment is applied to the nerve endings. Acupuncture treatment is a treatment method that stimulates the nerves. In this way, its physiological effect on the nerve endings aims to discharge the relevant nerves.
The treatment process depends entirely on the severity of the pain the person suffers. Those with extremely high pain may receive treatment in a longer time, while those with less pain may have a shorter treatment period. For this reason, the treatment process varies from person to person depending on the advanced level of the disease.
