Summary of article contents:

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a neuropathic pain syndrome which is characterized by critical unilateral paroxysmal facial pain. Attacks of pain are usually stimulated by tactile irritation within the part of the trigeminal nerve. TN pain typically relapses and remits, even when patients are taking conventionally treatments which results in a major source of disability and poor quality of life. We are here with reporting a case of trigeminal neuralgia in a 34 year old male patient. The possible understanding of the case in terms of Ayurveda and a therapeutic protocol with promising result has been discussed.
