Dear Carmen. I suffered rt side Trigeminal neuralgia some 18 months ago. Caused by playing a lot of sax as an 82 yr old. Dentists found all teeth ok even though gums were painful .
Dr diagnosed trigeminal. . Mine was the middle nerve, maxillary. Prescribed dangerous cabamazepine. Then found turmeric as good with less potential liver damage. By accident all symptoms disappeared
after lifting a 20 kg bar from floor to chest several times every other day. Neck muscles were strained. Jaw muscles are an extension, so they became reconditioned.
Playing sax again. All well. I do now take B12 and turmeric daily.
You might like to try lying on your back and hold your head up to strain neck muscles.
