Complications include facial numbness and dryeye. In about 30% of patients, pain recurs 3 to 5 years after treatment [4]. Repeat radiosurgery can be effective; however, the risk of facial numbness is increased. Figure 6.[mayfieldclinic.com]

The pain is most often located in the axilla, along the course of the ulnar nerve, and when the circumflex nerve is involved, in the deltoid muscle.[henriettes-herb.com]

Key points • For several cranial neuralgias, the diagnostic workup should include structural imaging with MRI with and without contrast to evaluate for evidence of inflammation or space-taking lesions, vascular imaging consisting of either MRA or CTA[medlink.com]

The field of neuropathic pain research and treatment is in the early stages of development, with many unmet goals.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Although treatment of neuropathic pain may be difficult, optimum treatment can be achieved if the neurologist has a complete understanding of the therapeutic options, the mainstay of which is pharmacotherapy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
It was managed by several medication and landmark-based great auricular nerve block with poor prognosis. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 25-year-old man presented with a pain in the left lateral neck and auricle.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The causes, presentation, diagnosis, management, prognosis, and prevention of PON were reviewed following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Patients aged 60 years had the worst prognosis: 18% still had mild pain at 3 months and 6% had moderate or severe pain. At 1 year, 8% had mild pain and 2% had moderate pain.[mdedge.com]
Prognosis The condition tends to come and go. Attacks of pain may be experienced off and on all day, or for days or weeks at a time, or no pain may be experienced for a prolonged period of time. However in most cases, the prognosis is good.[brainfoundation.org.au]
Direct injury to the nerve appears to be the etiology of post-traumatic external nasal neuralgia.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In about 85% of cases, no lesion is identified, even after extensive investigations, and the etiology is labeled idiopathic (classic) by default.[emedicine.com]
The majority of this research has focused on nociceptive pain or pain of mixed etiology. There has been less focus on these aspects of neuropathic pain.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The etiology of PON is partially clear, and the pain could be persistent and hard to cure. Reducing the incidence of PON can be realized by improving technique.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We describe current approaches to the diagnosis and assessment of neuropathic pain and discuss the results of recent research on its pathophysiologic mechanisms.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
METHODS: The exact pathophysiology is still not fully understood and occipital neuralgia often develops spontaneously. There are no specific guidelines for evaluation of patients with occipital neuralgia.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Important pathophysiologic mechanisms include sodium-and calcium-channel upregulation, spinal hyperexcitability, descending facilitation and aberrant sympathetic-somatic nervous system interactions.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology for idiopathic nasal neuralgia is poorly understood but it appears to be of a central etiology given lack of response to intranasal anesthetics.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiological Basis of Surgical Treatment The pathophysiological basis of the surgical treatment relies on our knowledge about the pathophysiology of trigeminal neuralgia.[omicsonline.org]
Data on surgical procedures, incidence, cause of PON, management, outcomes, and preventive technique were extracted.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Simultaneously, the neural foramen was packed with autogenous bone fragments to prevent recurrence.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Objectives: To examine the efficacy of corticosteroids in preventing postherpetic neuralgia.[cochrane.org]
Another medication used as prevention is pregabalin with good results as well. Most patients respond to nerve blockade with local anesthetic to the external nasal nerve and sphenopalatine ganglion block and radiofrequency ablation.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prevention Antiviral Drugs The prevention of postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) includes the use of a vaccine and several drugs during the acute phase of the disease.[asra.com]
