What is the degeneration or pressure on the trigeminal nerve that causes neuralgia?
Trigeminal neuralgia is often caused by the compression of the trigeminal nerve, typically by nearby blood vessels, which can lead to degeneration of the nerve's protective myelin sheath. This compression disrupts normal nerve signaling, resulting in episodes of severe facial pain. Other potential causes include multiple sclerosis, tumors, or injuries that can damage the nerve. The exact mechanism involves abnormal electrical discharges in the nerve, leading to the characteristic sharp, shooting pains.

How does the trigeminal nerve function in relation to the condition known as trigeminal neuralgia?
The trigeminal nerve is responsible for transmitting sensory information from the face to the brain. In trigeminal neuralgia, this nerve becomes irritated or compressed, causing severe facial pain.
