I have severe pain on the left side of my face due to trigeminal neuralgia. What can I do to prevent this pain?
The best way to prevent trigeminal neuralgia pain is to take medications like carbamazepine or oxcarbazepine as directed by a neurologist. Avoid known triggers (cold wind, chewing on the affected side) and visit a specialist if discomfort persists, since dose adjustment or treatments may be needed.
