    1. Surgery: Surgery for trigeminal neuralgia can be divided into peripheral neurotomy, rhizotomy, trigeminal neurospinoctomy, trigeminal nerve compression or decompression, and trigeminal nerve microvascular decompression. The above methods are to destroy the trigeminal nerve, so that the trigeminal nerve loses its normal physiological function to achieve temporary analgesia, which can cause facial nerve palsy, hemiplegia, ataxia and other sequelae, and after a period of time, the trigeminal nerve regenerates, causing pain again, and the first rate is high.
