The Doc Is In - "Trigeminal Neuralgia"

Trigeminal neuralgia is a chronic pain condition which usually affects the trigeminal nerve. In this "The Doc Is In" segment, Emergency Room Physician, Dr. Ryan Stanton, introduces us to a woman who suffers from this condition. Trigeminal neuralgiaI is more common among women than men and is more likely to occur in people over 50. The condition may worsen over time and it is difficult to cure. The main causes of trigeminal neuralgia are aging, multiple sclerosis, stroke, facial trauma, surgical injuries, and brain lesions. "The Doc Is In” is produced by Go Media Kentucky.
