Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) or Tic Douloureux is a type of craniofacial pain caused by affliction of the fifth cranial nerve (5th CN). Trigeminal neuralgia is perhaps the most painful disorder to affect mankind. The disorder is characterized by its "seizure-like" attacks of pain to designated areas of the face that are supplied by the trigeminal nerve.
