NEURALGIA PROGNOSIS |
|
|
The effectiveness of the treatment
depends on the cause of the neuralgia, but many cases respond to
pain relief.
Trigeminal neuralgia tends to come and go, but successive attacks
may be disabling. Although neuralgia is not fatal, the patient's
fear of being in pain can seriously interfere with daily life.
Some people with postherpetic neuralgia respond completely to
treatment. Most people, however, experience some pain after
treatment, and a few receive no relief at all. Some people live with
this type of neuralgia for the rest of their lives, but for most,
the condition gradually fades away within five years. |
