The incidence of Trigeminal Neuralgia was estimated to be 5.5 (95% confidence interval 4.7–6.4) per 100,000 person-years. Trigeminal neuralgia (TN), also known as tic douloureux, is a type of chronic pain disorder that involves sudden, severe facial pain. It affects the trigeminal nerve, or fifth cranial nerve, which provides feeling and nerve signaling to many parts of the head and face.
