Allopathic Treatment
When a patient with trigeminal neuralgia consults an allopathic doctor, they are typically prescribed painkillers, muscle relaxants, and antispasmodics.
These medications provide only temporary relief.
Eventually, doctors may recommend Botox injections. If Botox is ineffective, surgery is suggested. However, there’s no guarantee that surgery will cure trigeminal neuralgia.
Patients often endure not only the painful condition but also the intolerable side effects of these treatments.
Homeopathic Treatment
In my clinical practice, which I’ve been conducting since 1997, patients often come to me after undergoing extensive allopathic treatment.
Homeopathy gradually reduces the frequency and severity of pain, sensitivity, and numbness. This allows patients to taper off and eventually stop their allopathic medications.
Homeopathy doesn’t use painkillers; instead, it addresses the root cause of trigeminal neuralgia.
My prescriptions are based on the cause, triggering factors, and the specific modalities of the patient’s condition. I consider the type of pain; whether it’s sharp, shooting, throbbing, lancinating, or excruciating; —when preparing a patient’s prescription.
Homeopathy is safe, natural, and gentle, with no side effects.
Typically, it takes about 5 to 8 weeks to notice some improvement, and full treatment can take one to two years. Patients should remain patient throughout the process.
Number of Medicines
There are around 120 homeopathic medicines for trigeminal neuralgia.
Deciding which medicines to prescribe, in what potency, and how often is a complex process that requires a highly qualified and experienced doctor.
A sensible doctor doesn’t prescribe based solely on the disease name. Instead, they take a complete history of the patient, study their symptoms, and select the appropriate medicines based on the patient’s susceptibility.
Homeopathy is not “ready-made”; it is “tailor-made.”
