Non-Surgical Relief from Trigeminal Neuralgia with Radiofrequency Ablation – Dr. Waqas Mehdi
Introduction to Trigeminal Neuralgia
Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN), often described as one of the most severe pains known to medical practice, is a chronic pain condition that affects the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from your face to your brain. Sufferers commonly experience intense, stabbing pain on one side of their face. Traditional treatments have ranged from medications to various forms of surgery, but for those seeking non-surgical options, Dr. Waqas Mehdi’s expertise in Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) offers a promising solution.

His approach is personalized, considering each patient’s unique situation to deliver the most effective care.
Understanding Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
Radiofrequency Ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses radio waves to create an electric current. This current delivers precise heat to specific areas of nerve tissue, helping to decrease pain signals from that area. In the case of Trigeminal Neuralgia, RFA targets the trigeminal nerve at a point where it can effectively reduce or block the pain impulses, providing significant relief.
The RFA Procedure Explained
The procedure is typically performed under light sedation, ensuring that patients are comfortable and pain-free throughout. Using fluoroscopy (a type of X-ray imaging), Dr. Mehdi accurately locates the trigeminal nerve. A thin needle is then inserted through the cheek, and once positioned correctly, a mild electrical current is passed through to ensure the needle is at the optimal spot for treatment. The targeted nerve fibers are then heated with radiofrequency energy, which “turns off” the pain-causing nerve signals.
