Ternary nerve: symptoms of inflammation

The trigeminal nerve of the face is the most importantof the entire cranial-cerebral region, and its inflammation is a very serious disease. The triple nerve consists of motor and sensitive fibers. The skin of the face, the temporal and frontal areas, the mucous cavities of the nose and sinuses, the tongue, the eye conjunctiva, the masticatory muscles, the musculature of the bottom of the mouth (the anterior abdominal muscles of the dorsal and maxillofacial muscles), the muscles that strain the palatal curtain, the tympanic membrane depend on its condition and other organs of the neck and head.

An extensive field of activity for whichmeets the trigeminal nerve of the face, is associated with its autonomic nucleus starting from the fourth ventricle of the brain of the head and continuing until the sixth thoracic vertebra. Damage to the branch of the trigeminal nerve during colds or with improper treatment occurs as a result of the spread of infection that occurs when the area of the roots of the teeth, nose and paranasal sinuses is inflamed. However, most often lesions of the trigeminal nerve are observed in disorders of the upper sympathetic node, from which the external and internal carotid arteries depart.

The trigeminal nerve, the symptoms of inflammation of whichare expressed in pain states, innervates the neck, head and face, their vessels and muscles, eye orbits. It has a superior value than the facial nerve, and in the inflammation of the trigeminal nerve, many vessels are affected, among which there are feeding hypothalamus. As a result, there is a strong pain syndrome, which, if untimely or incorrectly treated, can spread to almost the whole vegetative system of the head and face, causing unbearable terrible pain.

When against the background of colds occursinfection of the upper sympathetic node, the spasms of the vessels feeding the ganglion also begin, and with prolonged spasms, spikes occur (in the late stages of inflammation). This neuralgia against a catarrhal acute disease is a very painful ailment that affects the trigeminal nerve. Symptoms are characterized by cutting short-term pain of a part of the face. Although sensitive parts of the nerve are affected, the attack causes an involuntary contraction of facial muscles, painful tics.

As a rule, the pain goes to half the face, notspreading to the other side. Attacks of severe pain are noted in the region of the chin or cheeks, occiput, gums, lips, in rare cases painful attacks occur in the area of the teeth and the optic nerve. Manifestations have a clear beginning and end. A harbinger of an attack is a skin itch of a part of the face (burning, goose bumps). Then the pain begins, as if an electric shock occurred, sometimes reaching a high intensity. In some cases, a smacking of the tongue occurs or there are chewing movements, possibly lachrymation and metallic taste. The duration of the attack is from a few seconds to two minutes. It can occur at any time and often repeat.

Pain syndromes in trigeminal neuralgia can lead to severe brain damage at the microvascular level, as well as the cervical spine.

Inflamed facial trigeminal nerve: symptoms and treatment

For the treatment of ailment, all activities fortreatment of acute colds. Recommended hot baths and bath procedures, which warmed the receptor fields of the scalp, neck, face, promoting nutrition of the trigeminal nerve system. Produce the heating of the area behind the jaws with the help of a vodka compress. The use of natural anti-infectious agents, immunomodulators - extracts of echinacea and eucalyptus is shown. From physical exercises, the stool on the shoulder blades helps to relieve pain.
