Trigeminal neuralgia(Idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia, ITN ), is a common clinical facial pain syndrome. Its incidence rate is about 0.5‰~0.7‰, and the incidence of patients over 40 years of age is as high as 75% to 85%. When the attack pain is severe, like acupuncture pain, lightning pain, burning pain and so on, the pain is severe, cannot wash face and brush teeth to eat sleep and so on, seriously affects the work and the life.

Modern medicine believes that the current pathogenesis of primary trigeminal neuralgia is not completely clear, may be caused by the interaction of a variety of factors, mutual influence, both central disease theory, peripheral disease theory, but also found to be closely related to immune and biochemical factors. with the development of microsurgery and the advancement of medical imaging, microvascular compression theory (mvc) or neurovascular contact theory (nvc) is gradually accepted by most scholars. this theory holds that minor vascular compression is the main cause of primary trigeminal neuralgia after excluding other factors that can cause nerve damage. According to statistics, trigeminal neuralgia treatment methods are very many, each method has its own scope of application, the efficacy is not the same.
Traditional Chinese medicine theory, trigeminal neuralgia Etiology and pathogenesis, mostly caused by the invasion of external evil facial veins, or blood gas obstruction, which is related to the invasion of external evil caused by the insufficiency of the body's viscera function.

Tiandao TCM Clinic theory, through the use of five-combinant anti-drug treatment of trigeminal neuralgia clinical experience, trigeminal neuralgia is suspected to be no rash type of herpes zoster postherpetic neuralgia in the face of trigeminal neuralgia, because there is no special drug to treat zoster postherpetic neuralgia and no rash type of herpes zoster postherpetic neuralgia, plus these two types of pain are very high and similar, but also disease age over 40 years old, plus trigeminal neuralgia(TN) and postherpetic neuralgia(PHN) and called "world first pain "." Through our clinical experience, trigeminal neuralgia is suspected to be an onset in the face of postherpetic or postherpetic neuralgia without rash. It is recommended to use five-combinant anti-pain therapy.
