Schmerz, 07/05/2012
Loeser J et al. – Authros report the case of a 39–year–old female patient who suffered from trigeminal neuralgia of the left lingual nerve for 6 years. The previous therapy according to the guidelines including a Jannetta operation was unsuccessful. Only after beginning with daily mastication and consumption of very hot chilli peppers has the patient become reliably pain–free.
