- Dr. Aizik Wolf, Director of Miami Neuroscience Center at Larkin, is an international renown neurosurgeon with over 25 years of experience in treatment of facial pain disorders such as Trigeminal Neuralgia. In this video he explains what is Trigeminal Neuralgia, its symptoms and treatments available.
I'm a 38 year old male and have TN. I wish there were doctors in my mid Atlantic state that were educated on TN. It's such a horrible experience causing fear and limitations. The medication so far helps so far so I'm hopeful. Even in worse flare ups i try to keep humor and positivity. We can all prevail through this!
Hang in there. U can make it thru this. If u can get to Houston Texas consider an MVD surgery. It's amazing and so worth it.
I'm going straight for surgery forget medication thanks
I have TN.
I wish I could see Doctor Wolf.
i’m 17 and this has been going on for 9 months and i just got diagnosed. it’s terrible pain i just started on the medicine a few days ago it’s just horrible though. feels like my teeth are going to fall out and my head is hammered
Sorry to hear that. I had pain on my right side of the face had to go to the ER. They mentioned I might have this. Is your pain all the time?
I feel your pain litterally lol i was 23 when diagnosed and im 33 now, i dont suggest only dealing with your family doctor or emergency room doctors, i was on tegritol for a year and it helped for the sorta dull pain but not the extremely sharp pain that comes on fast, now i take Gabapentin everyday and it works 90% of the time, your not alone with this pain, good luck friend
@@curtissarnoski7012 hello, I have atypical tn, nonstop tooth gum pain. Relentless n severe. Curious if yours was constant pain. Gabapentin didn’t work, dr said I need very high doses. How much gaba do you take to relieve your pain? Happy to hear you are doing well, what a blessing. Thanks so much.
How are you feeling?
Am ready to get rid of this suffering tired of the pills and electric shock pills not holding up too good.
I had an mri recently after being told I have tn . I started taking tegretol. Ended up with pain behind my left eye. The mri shows I have a cyst in my left sinus. Are these connected? My doctor told me everything is fine. How is everything fine when I dont feel fine.
If you would like a second opinion with Dr Wolf please call 1-786-871-6800
can lower wisdom tooth growth cause upper cheek bone pain
Started at 16 years old 1973...Not one dr or dentist knew what I was talking about,, 62 now n pain getting more severe ..a true Suicide disease
If the doctor is saying the pain is not there all the time then there is more to my pain because, the pain I have is every second, minute hour, 365 days if the yr. I The problem now is I can't differentiate between migraine and the trigeminal when it's happening at the same time. My only luck is the pain is there all the time but i can endure some some are REALLY REALLY BAD!!!!. This is just indescribable. I am so scared now I don't know what to do! I was recommended Ubrelvy for the bad migraine and it's making it worse! I really need help. Someone please help. The medications are making me forgetful now too! Oh Lord😭😭😭😭😥😥😥

@@LarkinHealthSystem Thank you for the quick response!
I TN, every single day of the year, tregetol 400 mg doesn't work, topamax or any other medication.... I have been suffering for 17 years, I don't know what to do. My neurologist keep giving me new medication everytime but it doesn't work, I can't handle the pain. :(
Mine hits my teeth. Upper and lower. Just like tooth ache. Cold water helps calm the pain down until the pain builds up again. I also take Tegtetol but that can space you out so little as possible
How are you feeling?
@@LarkinHealthSystem all good at the moment. I tend to get flare up of it. When I feel it starting I go on the Tegtelol tablets for a few days.
I've since had the top tooth root filled after my dentist messed up a crown. It's now just flattened off because I'm not keen on having it taken out. But now when I get TN it only hurts in the lower tooth. I guess that's because the top tooth has no nerve to it.
I am suffering from tn omg i want to get rid of it
Bala Nisha have you had surgery yet
No getting rid of it,, started for me at 16 I’m 63 now.. no matter what I tried never worked n I will never try anymore of their rx poisons into me,,lyrica☠️🤬☠️🤯
@@SSsmith24 I agree with u I 27 now and on tablets for 8years nothing works so I taking them anymore
@@tearsorrain3073 same here, meds don’t work. Do you have typical or atypical? Mine is constant, like a dentist is with me 24/7 drilling my tooth with no novacaine.
@@lindapelle8738 it comes and goes but unpredictable. I afraid to chew so I blend everything . When.i get.it I find burning showers work I rather feel.burned then get it
which doctor treat tn?
rubsydos Dr Aizik Wolf
Huhuhu i need your help Doc, im having this pain now
i was diagnosed with cluster headaches and have the typical epiosdic bad attacks that last about 90 minutes however i also get a constant lower level pain in the same eye nose area not during the "attacks". does anyone also get this or does it sound more typical of trigeminal neuralgia ? or both?
If you would like Dr Wolf can call you to get more details and give you his opinion.
I get similar. Had upper molar dental problems?
I feel that pain 5 years in a row..it is realy painfull
Do you have atypical tn? I do, and it’s like the worst toothache 24/7. Also get 🥵 burning sensations. Wondering what you have tried and if anything worked. Mine occurred after dental surgery many yrs ago.
I am facing this trigeminal need your help
Me too I have it bilaterally
@Ron Krikorian no way?!
@Ron Krikorian thank you. I do take all those supplements and I’m vegan. I’m from ca . I’m under a lot of stress so hopefully it’ll get better soon after all I’m dealing with.
Thank you
😌😌
started 4 days ago, i know i was exposed to a soft cold breeze while sleeping the days before while traveling.
when i got back home it started, i am treating with meds and it did get less regarding the overall space the pain encompasses but the severity of the pain remained the same
my dentist says it will go away with time, i hope and try to endure
How are you feeling? Have your symptoms improved?
@@LarkinHealthSystem thank you for asking, they have improved to the point where I am painfree.
2 specialists made a wrong diagnosis, it showed all the symptoms of neuralgia trigeminus.
i endured a week of severe pain, it did not go away, the meds started losing effect.
i received an alcohol coctail trough the mouth unter the cheeckbone, treatment for neuralgia trigeminus.
one day later an absces was found, popped out one day after the needle to the jaw bone.
doctor removed it cleaned and i am pain free.
thx for asking again
lol oh nice/interesting
Oil pulling with coconut oil is very effective
This is a serious Neurological Disorder. Oil pulling ISNT close to Brain Surgery.
People who suffer from this go through hell.
Its cures by wet cupping
What is wet cupping?
