[|Human|] My mother is suffering a shooting nerve pain which starts from her face and runs down till her neck. Though we have visited some neurologists in Mumbai, we havent been able to get a medicine that has worked on her .She is 60 years of age and she is NOT a diabetic. She is not suffering from any other ailments
[|AI|]  It sounds like a condition called trigeminal neuralgia .it is a very, very painful condition.there are some tablets which will give relief. If that doesn't come down then you have options like alcohol injections- or go in for a surgery.essentially the aim of the many surgery procedures is to either damage or destroy the part of the trigeminal nerve that's the source of your pain.: so it can cause numbness of the area of nerve supply to a varying degree- as this nerve is the responsible for most of facial sensation.
