Revisiting the proposed hypotheses for trigeminal neuralgia with a note on its co-existence with Glossopharyngeal neuralgia. a review

Objective – to summarize the various hypotheses regarding development of Trigeminal Neuralgia with a brief discussion about causes for its co-existence Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia, which has been seen infrequently. Summary background - Cranial nerve neuralgia is one most common pain syndromes attributed extreme (extremely) detrimental effects on middle age population who are more productive. The first documentation (TN) dates back second century AD by Aretaeus Cappadocia, contemporary Galen.1 A study conducted from 1992 2002 in UK reported an incidence 26 per 100000 year.2 Its prevalent amongst (the) female ratio 1.7:1, and increases age. purpose my paper summarise all possible mechanisms that lead create update what we know it now. My would also like explore certain possibilities, according me, (are) responsible infrequent occurrence neuralgia.
