How to treat trigeminal nerve pain?

Are you tired of feeling like someone is sticking hot daggers in your face? Do you wake up every morning wondering if today will be the day that your trigeminal nerve pain takes over your life completely? Fear not, my friend! In this article, we’ll explore some not-so-ordinary but effective ways to treat trigeminal nerve pain.

Let’s first understand what trigeminal nerve pain is:

To put it simply, if your brain was a town then the trigeminal nerve would be Main Street. It sends signals from your face and head back to the brain – pretty important stuff if you ask me. Unfortunately, when something goes wrong with this street (aka gets compressed or irritated), it can cause severe pain in areas triggered by specific actions such as speaking, eating, yawning or even just simply smiling!

No one wants their happy smile interrupted by pesky and unnecessary pain signals running down their cheeks! So let’s look at how to ease this discomfort.

Here are some natural remedies for treating Trigeminal Nerve Pain:

1) Keep Your Head Cool:
By cool I mean really cold. Place an ice pack on whichever part of your head hurts for a few minutes several times each day. The extreme cold helps numb any sensation which in turn provides relief from the intense sharp sensations caused due to pressure on nerves.

2) Get Regular Massages:
Ahhh massages…is there anything better? Especially during these trying times when our whole body seems tense and uptight all hours of the day. Getting regular massages will help release tension around any regularly affected muscles in certain facial area & reduce inflammation thus keeping those attacks away.

3) Exercise Properly: (as if anyone really exercises “improperly”)

It’s always important to take care of yourself physically so make sure your posture is correct and if you are working on a computer for long periods of time that the screen is at eye level so that you don’t strain your neck. An overly stressed neck can impede blood flow to facial muscles and any pressure in this area has potential to activate Trigeminal pain.

4) Try Essential Oils:
Essential oils? Really?
Yes, really. Believe it or not, essentials oils have natural analgesic properties which means they help reduce pain sensations due to their beneficial chemical make up. The essential oil Chamomile especially has been proven effective in treating nerve pains thus bring some relief.

5) Rest Up:
(really, ya think?)

We all love taking naps but when it comes down to relieving Trigeminal Nerve Pain as well adequate sleep pattern plays major role. Our body performs natural cell renewal process during sleep period & tissues repair work occurs more effectively during deep REM (Rapid Eye Movement) Sleep if we dont stick around with our “NetflixnChill” routine.

6) Stay Hydrated 24×7:

Keeping yourself hydrated will ensure toxic elements inside body get eliminated properly whenever possible thus ensuring blockages aren’t formed frequently / There’s no actual substitute for plain water!
