If anyone has this condition, even mild stimulation of face such as from brushing teeth or putting on makeup may trigger a jolt of excruciating pain. Trigeminal neuralgia affects women more often than men and it’s more likely to occur in people who are older than 50 years. Trigeminal neuralgia also called as Tic Douloureux, the function of trigeminal nerve is disrupted. This disorder is not fetal but can be debilitating. Due to the intensity of the pain, some individuals may avoid daily activities or social contact because they fear an impending attack. According to <em>Ayurveda</em> trigeminal neuralgia can be understood as <em>Anantavata</em>. It is explained as diseases of head involving simultaneous vitiation of all tridosha producing sever pain at unilateral side of face. The present article deals with the <em>Ayurvedic</em> approach to the trigeminal neuralgia as <em>Anantavata.</em> <em>Ayurvedic </em>management of trigeminal neuralgia is based on pacifying <em>tridosha.</em></p&gt;}, number={07}, journal={Ayurlog: National Journal of Research in Ayurved Science}, author={Maldhure (Dangore), Rupali}, year={2019}, month={Nov.} }
