While all supporters of Salman Khan look forward to Sikandar, who is scheduled for a theatrical release on March 30, a lesser -known aspect of the life of Bollywood superstar is his fight against a painful state of health, which often suggests “suicide disease“- because of the excruciating pain he causes on the person who suffers from it.
Trigema neuralgia
Salman Khan suffers from trigeminal neuralgia, a neurological disease that causes pain in the face. This chronic neurological disorder affects the trigeminal nerve, which is responsible for the transmission of sensory information from the face to the brain.
It is characterized by a sudden, severe face pain that can be caused by daily activities such as chewing, conversation and even touching the face. The pain is often described as an acute, shooting or as an electric blow, usually affects one side of the face. These episodes can last from a few seconds and can occur sporadically or in rapid continuity. In several interviews, Salman Khan called the pain to feel like continuous strokes in the face.

The common causes include the compression of the nerve with blood vessels, scattered sclerosis, tumors or face injury. Options for Treatment of Trinic Neuralgia The goal is to reduce or block pain signals to the brain. Initial approaches often include medicines such as anticonvulsant and muscle relaxed. If the drug is ineffective, surgical variants may be considered, including micro -vascular decompression (MVD), gamma and rhizatomy.
Salman Khan began to have symptoms of triggering neuralgia around 2007 when he was shot for a “partner”. He survived severe face pain over a few years before postponing the operation to the US in 2011 to ease the condition.

Salman Khan’s openness regarding his diagnosis has attracted considerable attention to this less famous illness, emphasizing its influence and problems faced by those who suffer.

In addition to Salman Khan, many other celebrities were diagnosed with this excruciating condition. The four-time Prime Minister of British William Gladston is expected to have this disease. The author Melissa Seymour was also diagnosed with this condition. The American musician Travis Barker, who has a son of Kardashian, also struggles with the disease.
